Video Conference Software

I thought I was pretty attached to SKYPE since I was able to keep in contact with my family and friends while I was vacationing out of the country using it... but after downloading Google Voice and Chat I was persuaded to start using it as my video "chat" of choice. My executive summary document and my google presentation links explain my reasoning :)

Island Lessons and Google Site

I recently travled to four islands (San Juan, St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Maarten) and I incorporated my trip into lesson plans for my third grade students. I used CSO's from Math, Science and Social Studies to share my experiences with my students.

See "Great Stops on the Web" for links to my lesson plans
