We have to be the luckiest class in the Global Read Aloud! We were able to have back to back Skype calls! Of course it doesn't normally happen that way, but due to schedule changes and time zone differences it just happened to work out that way. We were beyond excited. We first Skyped with Mrs. McAdams class is St Louis, they were wonderful because they gave up their lunch to talk to us! It was so fun to talk to them about what they liked about the book. We also discussed our favorite characters. They were very friendly and fun to talk to.
Then we talked to Ms. Cypert's class in CA! We did a quick mystery Skype it wasn't hard because we both live in states on the ocean - just different oceans! Their class is VERY big, 34 students! We don't know how they do it! They are very nice and have been leaving fabulous comments on our blogs. They are thoughtful and encourage us to be better writers. It was fun to put faces with names! We haven't been able to keep up with commenting on all of their blogs, feel free to visit them. We know they would appreciate it!
Mrs. Cobb's class joined us for both of the Skpe calls and so there were a few more of us. We all had so much to say. Only a few of us were shy. We are having so much fun connecting with other classes! We hope that we can talk to these classes again. We will have to because our teacher forgot to take a picture! It is really unbelievable because she takes pictures of everything! Now we have to talk again!
