This past week we have been very busy creating, collaborating , and performing. The "Twelve Days of Halloween" was the focus for a collaborative writing project with our very good friends, Miss Dunsiger's Grade 1/2 class in Anacaster (Hamilton) Ontario. Creatures and things (nouns) and words that describe them (adjectives) was the learning focus. Both classes wrote their version of the "Twelve Days of Halloween", then using Google Documents, exchanged stories and created illustrations. Using the web 2.0 tool VoiceThread, each class created Digital Story Book versions, then through a video conference call via Skype, did a shared reading of each Digital Story! Thank you for collaborating Grade 1/2 !

I'm so glad that we were able to do this activity together! My students loved it. This was a great way to get the children involved in some meaningful reading and writing!
I look forward to collaborating more with you this year!
