SKYPE Anyone???

Ms. Rubin just discovered the world of "skype-ing"....now she is putting some
ideas together on how to bring the global world into our classroom.  

I welcome good educational ideas!  Send your ideas my way!

Do we skype with classes from around the world?  Or, within our country?

Do we have a topic related contests with Ireland, Canada, or England?  

OK, start thinking about some ideas!
