Christmas Around the World Voicethread

I have started a Christmas Around the World Project at Voicethread. If you are interested in sharing, click on the link below, and share your Christmas traditions with us. It is really easy to get started, and a very innovative approach to using Web 2.0 in your classroom powered by Voicethread. If you I have also started a Christmas Around the World Wiki, where you can contribute to a collection of customs, pictures, sounds, or videos from your part of the world. With both projects going, we can create a great learning place for students to learn about their "global community." Please take a minute to contribute today. Thanks!

It might be possible also to get pictures and input from our students because many are immigrants and still have family in other locations.
