Project Aims:
To join Elementary School classrooms globally with a view to exploring what life is like in each country through discussion, sharing and collecting multimedia to create final products together
Essential questions we aim to answer:
- What are the similarities and differences among children around the world?
- How can we connect with each other through our commonalities?
- How does your geography where you live impact your topic?
