​Hello! I thought you might like to see this picture! The 2nd grade students at Dorton Elementary were able to Skype with Jonathan Emmett, author of ” The Princess and the Pig” and many, many more, via the Mondopad!!! He called us all the way from England!!! Also, I have another Skype session scheduled for tomorrow, October 23rd, with Donna Gephart, author of “How to Survive Middle School” with the 6th grade classes! Pike County Proud! Thanks Rebecca Bowling for sharing!

Mary Beth this so exciting! The students in our schools can go anywhere and do anything-and meet folk that we never dreamed possible. Are we “Leveling the Playing Field” or what! Pike is doing great things.

Mary Beth, Facilitating these connections by opening doors for students is truly inspirational. Thanks for sharing.
That is wonderful, Mary Beth and Rebecca…those students are learning real world skills about communication and technology to name a couple! Not to mention also encouraging a love of reading!!
