COMPUTER WORK |
Pumpkin Seed Project 2009 The main objective of this project is
to reinforce our math estimation skills as well as our computer skills.
Another objective is to participate in a global project that would remove
the four walls of our lab and let us "talk" with and share with other
students in other states and perhaps even other countries. We will use VOICE
THREAD to do this and if we can find a partner classroom to SKYPE with we
will do that as well.
