Mrs. Rivera's Class - Kindergarten Dual Language - Using Technology - Skype.
The students learned about friends living in Japan. It was morning in Austin around 8:30 a.m., but 10:30 p.m. at night in Japan. Mrs. Rivera's friends, Mrs. Kathy Sandoval and her high school son, Daniel, living in Tokyo, Japan, took their laptops over to the windows to see the night skyline of Tokyo and listen to the sounds at night there.
Each kindergarten student came up to the microphone and asked a question. They learned how to say, good morning, goodbye and hello and count to 3 in Japanese. Then Daniel, also taught them Chinese for one, two, and three. They were saying it in 4 languages, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, and English!The coolest thing that happened was when our principal, Mrs. Sara Nelson, came in and went to the microphone and camera and asked Daniel what grade was his favorite, and of course he said 4th grade because Mrs. Nelson was his teacher at Canyon Creek Elementary! Check out the selfie, Mrs. Nelson took with her student via Skype!
K.13 Science, technology, and society. The student understands ways technology is used in the home and school and how technology affects people's lives.
