 * **Title**: ||< Skype Learning ||
 * **Subject**: ||< All Content ||
 * **Grade**: ||< 2nd ||
 * **Time Frame**: ||< 30 minutes once a week ||
 * **Summary:** ||< TSW learn how to Skype in order to reflect to other peers/Book Buddies ||
 * **Tasks**: ||< Set up Skype
 * Objectives: ||< After using Skype, TSW reflect with their peers on what they are learning and in return their book buddies will be able to make connections. As a result, we will be creating a discussion on what we are learning and it will go beyond our classroom and grade level to a higher level of reflecting and learning!. ||
 * Assessment: ||< TTW observe interactions between peers and use reflections on where we need to go next. ||
 * Resources: ||< Computer, Skype Program installed, Camera ||
 * **Teacher**
 * Reflections:** || Overall, it was a success! We had to improvise and Skype with Ms. Elias' Class-thank you! Becasue we both have been discussing natural resources during science, we asked each other questions about natural resources. Afterwards, we reflected and discussed how we did and how we could improve. My kids discussed how next time we can all sit on the floor in front of the activ board and the speaker can be the one in front of the camera. This will help with behavior management and with our commnunicatin skills. The next step will be to skype someone outside our school community after we have practiced a few more times. As a side note, a student did use the flip camera to flim our activity. I did not load it due to photo restrictions. ||
