Idea for Communication Applications
Edu.glogster.com would be great for the Personality Posters my students create!
I would also like to use "xtranormal" to allow my students to create virtual interviews.

We plan on sharing resources for "Touching Spirit Bear." then we will skype each others classrooms to lead discussions midway through the novel and at the end.

lesson idea for My Brother Sam is Dead
Lesson Idea: My Brother Sam is Dead
Have the student come up with a new ending to My Brother Sam is Dead.
Have them write or type the script up. Edit the script.
Next, the students will act out the scene and video tape it.
Then show the video to the class, post to the blog site or You-tube site.
This could be a lot of fun for the students.

Skype Idea
Jeopardy Competition between two schools:
Needs: Computer with webcam and internet connection
jeopardylab.com
textbook
class notes
Procedure: Students are directed to create a jeopardy game based on a concept within the academic subject's curriculum map (ex.: "Author's Purpose") Students are guided to creating category topics and then writing questions for each category. A Skype relationship/connection will be created by teachers from two classes so that the students may compete with each other in playing the game.
