Gr. K Jobs People Do Riddles

I have several Pre-K classrooms located in Newport News, VA looking to connect with other Pre-K or Kindergarten classrooms during the time frame of Wednesday, February 1st – Friday, February 10th on the following project. 

Each classroom will select 7 – 9 jobs, with a total of 14-18 jobs represented in the project. Each classroom will create riddles for the jobs they selected. During the video conference, students in each class would be grouped so 2 – 3 students present a riddle and visual clues. The collaborating class will try to guess the job. 

When classes connect, they can begin the video conference with sharing where they are located and also share information about their school and/or weather outside. Classes can also share a song with each other. 

Please let me know if you are interested in participating with one of the Pre-K classrooms I work with and I’ll connect you via email with a teacher. 

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.

2nd Grade Pen Pals

A 2nd grade class in upstate New York would like to create a Pen Pal project where students would be able to learn the proper way to write and address letters. We would like to be able to actually mail letters to some friends across the US. This doesn't have to be a continual project and we could connect via video conference in order for students to meet face-to-face. Each class can just write one letter to send or they can continue to communicate. We are a school in NY so we are looking for collaborators as far away as possible.


To participate please email: kpeavey@madisoncentralny.org
