Global Read Aloud 2016: Google Hangouts


What we have to say about our Google Hangouts: 
This week we did Google Hangouts. (OY)
We did the Google Hangouts with grade 2 classes. (BDL)
We did the Google Hangouts with other classes from around the world. (AA)
One class was from California, only 10 minutes away from Disneyland and the other was from Cozad, Nebraska. (OY, AO, JL)
Cozad is 1931 km from us and 17 hours drive away from us. (KM)
In Cozad there are 4000 people. (AO)
In Cozad, there was just one elementary school and one high school. (JL, NG, AA)
We asked so many questions while we were doing the Google Hangouts. (OY)
We did the Google Hangouts because we want to talk to other grade 2's because they've read the same books as us by Lauren Castillo.

We want to know more about other people from around the world and we want to know what they think about the books. (KM, AO, AA)

We asked questions like:
-What was your favourite part in The Troublemaker? (AO)
-What is your favourite subject? (JL)
-Which book did you like better Nana in the City or The Troublemaker and why? (AA)
-Which languages do you speak at home? (NG)
-What is your favourite thing to do at recess? (AAw)
-What is your favourite book? (RW)
-What is your mascot? We learned that Cozad's mascot is the Haymaker! (KM)
-What do you learn at school? (CS)
-What is your favourite thing to do at school? (AO)
                                                                                     -How do you get to school? (OY)

We found out:
-that Cozad has a cafeteria and we don't! (KM)
-that Cozad has a number of the day and we don't (KM)
-we learned that they are learning about Cozad is learning about the life cycle of meal worms in science (AO, JL and JL)
-they have 20 students in their class (KM)
-that both schools have read Nana in the City, The Troublemaker and The Reader by Lauren Castillo, just like us!


We had fun learning about the other classes. Thank you to both classes for a fun Google Hangout sharing your ideas and questions with us. We loved talking to you and meeting you.

We love Google Hangouts!
