Skyping take 2

I have continued using skype with my summer school class. I took David's advice and got an external microphone. It made a world of difference. My kids know they have to wait for their turn with the microphone if they want to ask a question or respond to one.

Several people also asked me about how I got to skype. I do bring my own computer with me each day. It is blocked if I try and get to it from a school issued computer.

My sister actually got us some children the same age to talk to at the program she is working with. This really gave my kids a new understanding of hat life in different places is like for kids their age. Definitely something I could not have accomplished with a book!
