We read them our 'Bee hive' rhyme while they showed us their drawing of snakes! Though sometimes we didn't really get what they said due to the accent, we could understand what they tried to tell us. We asked them whether they liked snakes and a lot of them said they didn't but they didn't fear them too!
The session last for 45 minutes and we felt a bit sad when it ended. We hope to have another session with them soon.
Love
K1 Kidea HI
How we looked like on their big screen
Can't believe we could talk to a class far away!
Our new friends from K2 Wyalong PS, Australia
How interesting! What a pity we are on the other side of the earth!!
BalasHapusHi Maria
HapusWell, I think if we could find the right time slot, it is do-able ;)
Thanks again

This is a wonderful way to collaborate! Sometimes it's quite difficult though because of the time differences. In any case, this kind of project across countries using skype can be easily supplemented with a blog where the two classes can prepare for the skype sessions.
BalasHapusHi Illya
HapusIt sure is, actually me and Vicky Loras now is trying to find a slot for our class to have a Skype session too, might be hard, but let's hope for it soon!
Icha
Brilliant Idea! The session must have been exciting for all the children involved. They might come up with other potential projects while they were attending the meeting. Wonderful!
BalasHapusHi Chico!
HapusIt was very exciting and my students now are craving for more! Unfortunately we are on a holiday now so it has to wait :)
Thanks again

I love your adding connection literacies to the classroom! This is an amazing project. How about trying to similar proyect with students from Argentina? We could record their voices and make them take about their country.
BalasHapusHi Jennifer!
HapusWe would love to! I'm still very new on this but would give it a try and excited about learning new things. Thanks a lot
Icha
