Pre-K Classrooms looking to Collaborate

I work with over 30 Pre-K classrooms in Newport News, Virginia and I have many who are looking for partners to collaborate with on a video conference. We teach several themes throughout the school year that include: Fall and Harvest Time, Five senses, Foods, Jobs People Do, Farms, Backyard creatures, etc. We would love to work with other Pre-K/ Kindergarten classroom on planning video conferences centered on a theme we are teaching or other ideas. We use a polycom set-up using IP address for our connections. If you are interested let me know and I can match a teacher with a request.
