2008- 2009 School Year

[Barbara Bashour]

I will be participating this year, hopefully more reliably than last year. I learned so many neat things from attempting the tasks. I wasn't always successful in getting our work uploaded, but we tried.

I'm eager for the first task to be announced.

Me too for this year! I found Voices of the World about 1/2 way through the year last year and loved seeing all the tasks. I'm looking forward to actually participating this year!

I very much want to be part of the project having only found out about VOTW a couple of months ago as you finished for the year. Being in Australia I can only participate until the November topic and then will start again with my new class in the new school year next Feburary..

[Jane Lowe]

I'm looking forward to being a part of VOTW again and I know my class will want to take part. Both classes that have been involved have enjoyed the tasks that we did.
Thanks Sharon for all the work you put into VOTW.

It was only last week that my class were asking about VOTW, so they'll be excited to know that we're participating again - they had a ball with the tasks last year!
Being part of this project not only opened the kids (and I) up to the world of Web2 tools...it opened us up to the 'world'...and that's what makes projects like this so powerful.

Thanks Sharon for being the 'connector'!

Yes my class and I will be participating again from NZ. I will be able to join in the fun up until December this year, then start again with my new class from February 2009. I really look forward to being able to be involved right from the start as last time we only got to join in towards the end.

My class will definitely be participating again this year. We all learnt so much about technology, about the world, other languages, other kids etc. VOTW has been a great project to be involved in :)

Hello everyone! Is this for real? Wonderful, Sharon!!! Of course Sweden is in. Our sixth graders just left school and I´ll be participating with a lovely class of 7-year-olds. Karin

Karin and Kim,

Where do you make your little avatars? I like the backgrounds and the full body views.

Thanks,
Barbara

I'm looking forward to hearing the first task. I haven't taken part in this project yet so it's going to be a very new experiance for me and my students. And we're going to be the first Polish school involved ;)

[Ginger Crockett]

Brevig Mission will be excited to participate again. We enjoyed all of last years tasks!
