Skyping to Discover

While poking through the sample blogs, I discovered one that really inspired me!  The teacher uses Skype to connect with other classrooms across the country, but refers to it as a "Mystery Skype."  The two connected classes have to give clues to one another to figure out which states they are from by sharing facts and fun trivia.  I LOVE this idea because we study regions in the United States and I would like to connect with classrooms in each region rather than simply studying from our sorely outdated textbooks.  Using Skype would make this unit extra exciting!!!
