The email address bounced back. I have a grade four-five class in Moose Jaw Saskatchewan. I would be interested in getting them involved in this. My personal Skype address is stangea; however, my classroom is connected at wikistange. Call me if you would like to discuss this further. I am free from 3:30-4:30 central time at school and then you might try me at home.

Hi Alan!
Glad to hear from you and so quickly! I just put the blog on and zap! there you were with a response! I see that you are one hour behind us with the time zones. So actually, by the time I could skype you, I will be home. I will try to skype you from home unless there are problems that will prevent me from doing so. Anyway, I would love for our kids to skype! What do you mean that you have 'four-five class'?
Thanks for the reply!

Hi Alan
My name is Jon Herzog and I'm a 5th grade teacher in Amherst New York. My class is just starting to study Canada, using a simulation, and my kids would like to talk to students from Saskatchewan. My school Skype account is jherzogskype. If you are intersted in getting our students talking let me know.

Hi Alan,
I have tried to email you but to no avail. We can skype until I can get the people over our technology to allow us to converse via wiki. I was thinking about the project we can work on. Is there anything in particular that you would like to do? Please send suggestions and ideas. For now, this and skyping would be the best. My regular home email address is: angielcooper@yahoo.com. just in case you would like to send something that way. Have a great weekend!
Angie

Hi! I am looking to set up Skype partners with my third grade classes. I would love to study culture, traditions, customs with another group, or do some kind of project (literacy or something!)

Let me know if you are still interested! My email is rachelharwell@mgsd.k12.nc.us

Thanks!
Rachel
