Connecting Cultures - Participate in Countries around the world

Hello,
We hope you will be interested in participating in our grade 7 Geography project! We would like to learn more about you and we need your help. If you are interested our class will will send you a photo travel log starting in September.
You will simply have to send us an email with your address and we will send a log to you as soon as we can. When you receive a log we ask that you:

First.........Write the date in the travel log.
Second....Include anything visual to help my students understand about where you live, a postcard, photo or phamplets.
Third.......Write short captions to go with the photos since long text will not be appreciated. A picture can say a thousand words.
Fourth....Send us a picture postcard or email explaining that you have received the travel log. Indicate the student name that owns the log you have in your possession.

You can tell us a little about the area on the postcard or email us if you like. This way we can track the places that the logs travel to on our classroom map.
Finally.....Please send the log to a conscientious friend or relative who would enjoy sharing information about his/her community, city or town with children who are eagerly awaiting a reply. This is a valuable learning experience for the children in my class as they continue to learn about the world in which we live.
We need to receive our final logs back in Kangiqsualujjuaq, Quebec by April 15 so we can share them with the other children in our class. If you receive this travel log around March 15 please consider yourself the last person and mail it back to the address below.

Sincerely,
Anne Lanteigne

Many schools have been involved in our project. Let me name two of them. We did a videoconference with Bill Peel's students from Hong Kong Canadian International School. Since then our students have exchanged numerous messages with them.

Another far away group who participated in our project are Sebastian Augustyniak's students from Seoul American High School in Seoul, Korea. They completed our travel logbook and returned it to us. Thanks to all the others who participated in our "Countries around the World" project!
