• westwood - Spanish Voicethread Tour

  Here is a lovely cross- curricular project that the spanish teacher and I did together. She came to me and said, "I want to use this but will you help me on the technology side, I don't have to understand the technology to use the technology." My answer is YES! We took 2 days, did it in class, and there is a rich project that also gives her a legacy to hand down to other classes and for others to use and share.
  
  In this, students are taking tours of countries. They will play this and critique it in class using the teacher's hook up between her computer and large screen tv.
