My class is working with another grade 2 class in Iowa. We started the project by reading the same story: "Boy + Bot". During art class our students created their very own robot friends. Using google+ we shared photos of our robots and partnered our students. My students are currently writing narrative stories which includes their partner's robot. This upcoming week we will be skyping to share our stories.
Finished Product:
We have finally concluded this project and I am pleased to say it turned out better than I could have ever imagined. The students were so engaged and shared truly wonderful, creative and imaginative stories. It was such a unique experience. I will definitely have to do more projects like this in the future.
As a side note- we are now becoming epals with our buddy class. After meeting and listening to some wonderful stories, both our students had questions about our school, community and country. This upcoming week we are completing a poplet about our community and country, and will create a video about our school to send to our new pals. In return they will be doing the same.
