Searching for Distance Collaborations

Hello,

My name is Valencia. I'm looking to collaborate with other schools anywhere. I teach 4th grade in Selma, Alabama. I would really like to expose my students to different cultures and societies. This would be my fist time but I'm really excited about getting started. The grade level really does not matter. I think the students will benefit greatly from the interaction.

Hi! I sent you a private message before I saw this one...my apologies! I think you have the info to get started, and I know you'll get plenty of hits here! If not, let me know and I'll direct the attention of some particular people your way!

Wow! I love the idea. My school is a k-5 school - 5-11 year olds. Our art teacher would love to work with you. She can stick with grades 2-5...that would fit your students. I'm going to share your doc with her, if that's okay.

I emailed our art teachers with Jo's request. I think it would be great!

Hey Valencia,

I've created a database for teachers who want to collaborate between classrooms both nationally in internationally. Just go to http://www.oratiobrevis.com to register. I just got the database up and going in public format. Once a teacher comes along that you'll fits your needs I'll put you in touch with them.
