We were so inspired by these stories that we joined a Gingerbread Family Collaborative with the help of our librarian, Mrs. Groden. We created our own version of the gingerbread story using an IPAD app called Little Bird Tales to share via Skype! Our original plan was to connect with another classroom in Pennsylvania. However since that did not pan out Dr. Quigley came to the rescue! We were able to Skype with him and share our story!
Getting ready for the Skype session...children sat with their partners and read over their pages |
Connecting with Dr. Quigley! Each pair stood in front of the IPAD and read aloud their page. |
Listening while each pair reads to Dr. Quigley. Our Skype session took place in the library. |
The proud authors! |
