On December 3rd and 4th Skype is holding a Skype-a-Thon which they are calling "A global movement to celebrate learning without borders." Their worldwide goal is to "travel"" 1 million virtual miles in 2 days. This would go great with Module 3 in our Global Passport initiative which is: "Connecting Beyond the Classroom." You can play Mystery Skype, talk with a Guest Speaker, or take a Virtual Field Trip. Playing Mystery Skype with a country in your Global area would be a fun activity to do! Here is a video that shows what Mystery Skype is about. I would love to support any teacher in this endeavor if they are interested! Here is the website with more information and where you can search for another class to Mystery Skype with. https://education.microsoft.com/skypeathon
