Jan replied to Eva Rekkedal's discussion 'Yes, we will take part in the task for March'

Hi Eva - We will take part. I'd like to make sure I understand it, though. We have our students illustrate a page for every country or state participating? Or do we just illustrate our country only? Thanks for all your hard work. Let me know if I ...

Since it is February and the month for love and valentines, maybe the kids could say some things they love about their country??

I noticed you said you were going to do the national anthem next. That was last year's task this year is the 'all for one and one for all' using MyPlick. If you go to the forum you will see instructions there,

Thanks Sharon

At 12:03pm on November 22, 2008, Sharon Tonner said…: Hi Jan, sorry to have not been in touch and give you more information. There is really no set of instructions as to what VOTW will be. But in brief, each month a new task is placed in this area for the teachers to complete with the children. The code is then send to me which I then place on the wikispace for the children to see. At the start of the month the task is given and it needs to be in before the end of the month as this is when all contributions from around the world are released.
You said you will do the voki which is great, remember to say exactly the same words as what is specified. Send me the code and I'll place on the wikispace.
November's task was set by Anna from Portugal. If you go to the Forum you will see instructions there. Again, send me the code as I am still taking this task and will release the final product end of month.
We are discussing what to do for December and hope to finalise that in hte next few days. If you want to add a comment or suggestions to this thread of the forum please feel free.
Look forward to hearing your children and any questions then just give me a shout.

At 6:19pm on October 30, 2008, Sharon Tonner said…: Hi Jan, are you able to create the first task in VOTW?

At 9:15am on October 30, 2008, Sharon Tonner said…: Hi Jan,

welcome to VOTW. The first task is out but very simple and it would be great if you could get your class to do this. The task is to make a voki (www.voki.com) that says:

'hello we are (school name) from (location) and you are listening to voices of the world. Goodbye'

You then send the embed code to me and I place on the wiki.

If you need help give me a shout.
