Read Around the Planet 2013

This activity is open to all K-12 students (ages 6-18) in public and private schools who have access to two-way interactive video equipment (IP H.323). Your class will be matched with a class from a different location and each class will exchange reading activities. Classroom to classroom connections will take place February – March 2013. Each connection is scheduled for an hour: 15 minutes for testing connections and introductions; 30 minutes for the reading activity (15 minutes per class); and 15 minutes for exchanging information about respective schools and communities.

If you are interested or need more information email brenda.hill@kcdc.ca or call 1-866-766 7373 and we will register your school on the Read Around the Planet Program, as we have all your video conferencing equipment already entered on the website.
