Objective of Collaboration		We would like to meet with another 4th grade class to practice our states and capitals. One class will start with saying "Who has the capital of Michigan?" the second class will answer "I have Lansing. Who has the capital of Washington?" Then the first class will answer "I have Olympia. Who has the capital of Illinois?" ... and so on. We have cards that can be e-mailed so the loop will run smoothly and continuously through all of the states. We would like to start the VC with a short introduction from each class telling a little about their community and school. The VC should be about a 1/2 hour. Our best time of the day for this is between 1:00-2:30.
