#worldgeochat is a weekly chat focused on teaching geography and global studies. Chats vary between geography specific topics as well as general teaching and education topics. ALL are welcome in worldgeochat!
#worldgeochat A2 We have done a number of Mystery Skypes. Just recently spent time with a class in Sweden. We are now working on exchanging videos, pictures of our schools/communities.

#worldgeochat A2 Also went via Facebook to Manchester, England to speak with @80sNostalgia. Shared the British perspective of the 80s with our Ss in our 1980s class at North White.

#worldgeochat A3 We believe strongly in using primary source speakers in our classroom. Here are some of the people who have shared their stories and engaged our Ss in learning.
#worldgeochat Tomorrow, Philo Barnhart and Charles Moisant, animators are joining us in class. Barnhart and his family have a history in Disney animation. My colleague @1988project is a huge part of our success!
#worldgeochat A5 Since we have gone 1-1 with Tech, we are working to become facilitators and have our Ss become collaborators and creators. Amazing what @Google has done for our classroom.
#worldgeochat A6 We are currently working on a project with a school in Mexico. We will be discussing gun violence/racism. Ss are excited and working to share and learn from another culture in November.
@SamMandeville A7 Tomorrow, we are inviting the Painting class to join us when the animators speak. Blend the love of 80s cartoons/animated movies with Ss who are artistically gifted or have that passion. #worldgeochat
