I just created this Global Classroom Project map on the wall outside our room. We are hoping to add more schools from other countries soon!

| So far we have one international contact - A cupcake greeting from Mrs. Harrison's class in Belfast, Northern Ireland! |

| Our contacts in the U.S. include students sharing on Edmodo in Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New York. We are also working on a seasons project with a school on Long Island, NY and a Voice Thread project with a school in Ohio! |
I love your map showing the locations of who you are connecting with! I will be putting something similiar up in my class too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Thanks for sharing! Here is a link to a Voicethread that we made to introduce ourselves to new friends around the world. http://voicethread.com/share/2315860/
ReplyDeleteSo nice to see you are enjoying the #GlobalClassroom! I really love that you are sharing with your school, on your blog and on twitter! I made a similar display last year, but it hung in my room. This year it's going inthe HALL like yours!

I love your hall display - I'll be borrowing that idea too!! My students are so excited to connect with other classes. (I hope we can connect with yours soon!)

Okay - so I'll be jumping on the Hallway display band wagon. What a wonderful way to create enthusiasm and curiosity! I love that you stated the classroom names and the technology used to engage with them (ie voicethread - my personal favorite).
