'Tis the season for butterfly rearing and I'm looking for grade 1 or 2 classes who would like to talk to kids in Eugene, OR about their experiences raising butterflies. I imagine a simple Skype video call would do the job, can help you if you are new to Skype.
I can talk at 12 noon my time, so 9am your time. Is that too early. I won't be available again until 4pm my time. I talked with a grade 1 teacher this morning who is very interested. My Skype account is mshapiro6. My email m_shapiro@sharon.k12.ma.us
I've created a page with Google sites with a picasa slide show of a few of the drawings. If you give me your email, I will send you the address and make you a collaborator so that students can leave comments.
Thanks- Looking forward to connecting on Wednesday.
