Re: movie making in the classroom and document cameras

Laurie,

Thanks for the information! I noticed that your school is a K-8 school for students with learning disabilities. My school has a "school within a school" for students with learning differences, and we are looking to collaborate with other schools using
technology. Would you be interested? Our program is fairly new - this is our third year, but the traditional school is celebrating our 200th year. We have four 3rd graders, four 4th graders, eight 5th graders, eight 6th graders, and five 8th graders. We
could connect on a common curriculum subject, a common area of interest in bettering the planet, or just chatting about what is the same and/or different about our lives given that we are in different parts of the country. My school is on the east coast.
Let me know if you would be interested and then we can figure out exactly how to make it happen.

Thanks again,
Beth Donahue
