Contact! Singapore and United States Skype Call! at 9:58 PM

Recently, Kim and Monique's classes were finally able to meet live via Skype. To quote Kim, "My excitement about our global sharing call was far outweighed by the smiles and laughter of my students and parents as they met their new friends in Singapore. We talked, asked questions, and gained a new understanding of a far away community. Thanks to the Global Learning Exchange for this opportunity." My kids said, "Wow, that was a once in a life time experience!" and "It was so awesome!" Enjoy the few pictures below.
