Objective of Collaboration All students will participate in a letter sounds song, using the sign language alphabet (we will show signs during the song so students can follow along)

Students will then do a letter sounds activity.
Example: Teacher says, "Hold up the letter that says "ba." All students with this letter will hold it up. We will do this for each of the letters in BINGO.

Students will then all participate in the singing of the song "Bingo."

Closing: 1-2 students from each class will share about their pets at home (visuals of pets are more than welcome but not required)

Materials Needed:
1. Letter cards (one per child with the letter B, I, N, G, or O)
2, One or two students willing to share about their own pet.

# of students on our end: 36, 2 classes working as one.

Dates for Video Conference:
This needs to take place during our Pets Theme so so any of the following days would be perfect: March 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 11, or 16

Please e-mail Heather Jimerson at heather.jimerson@nn.k12.va.us or Margie Myrsten at Margaret.myrsten@nn.k12.va.us with any questions/comments.

We are looking forward to working with you!
