SKYPE!

Today my class skyped with our classroom aid, who is vacationing in Hawaii!  What a great experience for the kids.  They were so tickled with the whole operation, from the webcam to the conversation.  It was an exciting event and I can't wait to do it again.  If anybody has any ideas for classroom skype uses, I'd love to hear about them.  We are planning to find an author to skype with, but I'd love to skype with another classroom somewhere far away.  We felt very professional with our video conference call today!
