Hello Mary Beth. I am a general music teacher in Memphis, TN, and new to Classroom 2.0. I found your page while browsing the members area and wanted to invite you to participate in an online classroom/cultural exchange - your students and my students communicating with each other, sharing their work and developing a global relationship (for lack of a better term). My wife and I used to live in Chester Springs. In fact, my wife taught in DASD for 10 years! Please let me know if you would like to try this. It has proven to be a successful way for my students to develop their communication skills and strengthen their appreciation for other cultures - nationally and internationally. I have a Voicethread posted on my page if you want to have a look - this would be an easy way for our students to communicate. You can also check out my students' projects on our music web page at http://web.me.com/knrgreene/RMSMusicMediaNetwork/Welcome.html. Hope to hear from you!

That sounds great, Mary Beth. Looking forward to working with you, too. My wife Robyn was the orchestra teacher at Lionville Middle and East High. We moved to Memphis in 2005.
