Skyping across the miles

I love visiting students all over the world in person, but if I can't always travel to them, I enjoy skyping as well.  Amy Johnson, Technology Integration Specialist with Parkway School District in St. Louis, MO recently arranged a skype visit between Hanna Woods School and me.  The school had just purchased all of my books to do an author study (Thank you Hannah Woods.)  They had great questions when we met.  Here's what's truly grand.  They have a "friend" class in Oklahoma that did an author study and skype visit with another author.  After everyone had completed skype visits, the two "friend" classes skyped to share what they'd learned from both authors.  Round and round we go with Skype!  I'm getting dizzy!
