I am so excited! While reading the book I came across a web based activity that links students all over the world for the purposed of exchanging information. The link to this is

I found a class in Australia with students the same age as mine, so we will begin to match up the students to correspond and exchange information. I have visions of collaborating on some group projects with the children - I can't wait.
I will be using Skype to set up some voice to voice collaboration with the students. My goal is to have the children learn more about Australia AND to be able to communicate more about their own lives.
I also discovered the amazing technology in my new Garmin navigational device. I can program in any location (even Europe) and head out - this amazing device will take me turn for turn right to the front door of the destination. If I decide to take an alternate route for some portion of my trip, the Garmin will patiently tell me that it is recalculating. I love this device - it makes me much more willing to strike out to areas I am not familiar with. Lindsay - I am now ready to come to your house!
