#mysteryskype

I shared this link with fifth and sixth grade teachers a couple weeks ago.  It is an interactive opportunity that allows students to explore map skills, deductive reasoning, social interaction and collaboration with a classroom far away.  After seeing it in action in a fifth grade classroom yesterday, it was evident that all classrooms would be able to manage and benefit from this experience.  I really suggest that you try it!  (Teachers talk prior to the mystery Skype - so you will be able to set parameters and discuss your students' age/abilities.)
