https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017 What are you already doing to promote global communication in your classroom? What are your new ideas? Let's brainstorm here! en-us 2017-11-27 04:47:32 UTC 2025-09-24 11:40:48 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210407314 I like the pen pal idea for my ELL students.  I would love to hear how you connected with other teachers to write pen pal letters.

I would also like to create a book for new families and students who move to Natick. Next year, we will have 15 5th grade ELL students so it would be nice to make a book for them. I love that idea and will be helpful to practice informational writing.

It could be ongoing.

A lot of these ideas would be great to add engagement and an authentic audience around the world. I also just went to a session on creating authentic audiences during PBL lessons, and a lot of these suggestions could be used to help create that authentic audience for project based learning. ]]> 2017-11-27 19:12:35 UTC https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604185 https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604264 2017-11-27 19:12:43 UTC https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604264 agrant27 https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604307 We do a unit on immigration. It would be really exciting to have students interview immigrants and make connections as to why and how people move from place to place and settle in certain areas. ]]> 2017-11-27 19:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604307 ilobrien https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210604684 Great ideas about platforms & #PBL to integrate literacy, global citizenship and authentic writing audiences.

It ties in very nicely with the new third grade science unit on weather and climate. If we are going to find and record weather data from around the world, why not actually connect with classrooms around the world?]]> 2017-11-27 19:14:21 UTC https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210605256 https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210605504 2017-11-27 19:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/missmagee/nils2017/wish/210605504
