Skypapalooza


The above slideshow was created by two students - Adam (from St. Raphael) & Michael B. (from Canadian Martyrs).
Process: 1. Students made video contact using Skype 2. Students shared picture books on idioms (The Cat's Pajamas & Monkey Business). 3. Students created a combined slideshow by sending images and ideas via email and Skype. 4. Students imported their ideas onto MovieMaker and to make a long story short - voila a new learning experience beyond the four classroom walls! Kudos boys!
