On Wednesday, February 6, 2013. my 6th grade students did a Mystery Skype activity with their peers from Mr. Roberts' class from A.M.Kulp Elementary, Hatfield, Pennsylvania, USA.
Geography teacher Danijela Mihailovic was also present during our chat and helped the students in deciding what questions to ask. After discovering each other's locations, the students talked about the popular boy and girl's names, the number of students and teachers in our schools, the pets they have at home, etc.
Our local newspapers featured a story about our modern way of teaching a foreign language and making global friendships via Skype.
