Students of St. Andrews Elementary dove into the world of skype today and their world became so much smaller! Distance, borders and time did not restrict Mrs. Comeau's students from taking part in a live workshop presented by students, Hannah and Gracey, in real time all the way from Mexico! The content of their presentation was based on a day in the life of a student of International School, Green Gates, in Mexico city. The students exchanged their experiences and a memorable dialogue was created between Mexico and Canada. A great time was had by all!
