Vietnamese Students
Tim,
All of my ten students are Vietnamese. :) They come from the wealthy 1% that can afford to send their children to a private international school (probably much like your students, whose parents could afford to get out of the country). They are all fluent in English as well, as they have grown up through the school and many have English speaking parents.
I (and my kids) would love to be penpals! Do you use Edmodo at all?
On a side note, I've become enthralled with The Buck Institute as well! What an amazing resource, eh? :)
Re: Student Online Writing Project
Amy,
This sounds interesting. Can you tell me though, do you have any projects coming up that might better suited for an international group (all of my students are Vietnamese, living in Vietnam)? If not, I'd love to catch up with you if/when I teach in the States.
RE: Student Online Writing Project
Rebecca,
I am open for anything! Do you have any ideas on what we could do? I think that anything we would do would be a great learning experience for all students. Let me think on this. I am sure between the two of us we can come up with something great. Feel free to email me at amy.ford@fayette.kyschools.us
