6th Grade Collaboration

I'm a teacher in a rural part of eastern North Carolina. Smyrna is located on the coast of NC. I'm looking for another 6th grade class to collaborate with during the 2011-2012 school year. Current events, comparing their communities, and projects are just some of the things I think my students would benefit from. We can skype or connect using IP videoconferencing.
