On Monday morning our time (Monday afternoon Baltimore time) Mrs. Ah Hee’s fifth graders met with their Baltimore friends once again. This time, though, it was a little different! This time the students were able to skype in small groups with their Baltimore group members. With three small skypes going on at once in the computer lab you could feel the excitement in the air!
The students were skyping with their Baltimore friends to help prepare for the next project they will be doing. Each small group of students will be creating a video for their friends in the other state. The purpose of our skyping was to find out what our friends were interested in learning about! We also had some “talk story” time to get to know one another better.
I was so proud of all our students, from Baltimore and Hawai’i. You all did an awesome job talking together, thinking of questions, and leading your own discussions. Mahalo nui!
Below are two videos of our small group skypes, one from their perspective, and one from ours!
