Hello fellow educators! I teach first and second grade at an international school in Taiwan and I am looking for a classroom to do a digital story exchange with. My students have worked with the H.S. 10th grade students over the past several weeks and have written, designed and are now recording their stories together. These stories will become digital files that we can easily share. It would be fantastic if we could share our final products with other classrooms around the globe. What would be even more ideal is if your classroom could create and share stories with us! Perhaps we could even take it another step forward, down the road, and our classes can create digital stories together! Please let me know if you are interested in collaborating with us on this idea or even if you are willing to share our stories in your classroom.
Also, I have a couple of students who are very interested in art and drawing and I am trying to find a couple of students, in other parts of the world, who share this interest, and who would be interested in having an equivalent to a pen pal in Taiwan, but the focus would be art projects and collaboration as opposed to only letters. If you have a student in your class or know of someone who would be interested, please comment.
Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Hi Genevieve
I am a teacher in Sydney. This sounds like a fantastic idea. I love the idea of not just sharing stories but pictures as well. Would the penpal idea be via email? Our school year doesn't start until 2012 so I couldn't start any exchanges until February next year. This is my email:
katet@macc.nsw.edu.au
and my blog: www.mrstoddsclass.blogspot.com
If this is suitable for you it would be great to do something together.
Kind Regards
Kate Todd
