Our elementary school will undertake a culture study of India next semester, and we are looking for an elementary school (or schools) in India to partner with us in learning.
We would like to share student artwork and conversations using VoiceThread or possibly a wiki.
We could also share photos in Flickr. We would also like to Skype with students and teachers. (We'll work through time differences!)
Please let me know if you would like to collaborate with us! Looking forward to responses.

This is just what my company does: www.usasiaedu.com
I would love to work on this project pro bono.
We can connect you with not one, but many elementary schools in India. The kids would so love it.
I will wait to hear from you!
Dear Dr. Gupta,
Our school in Washington D.C. is also looking for an elementary school in India. We were hoping to survey Sixth graders (12-13 year olds) about their habits and hobbies and then compare them with what we found in our school. This is a math project that we are trying to integrate with our social studies curriculum. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Let's chat via Skype. What date and time look good for you? I would also like our art teacher to be on the call. So, I will need to coordinate with her as well.
Thank you,
Emily

Also, Dr. Gupta, we have an upper school history teacher wanting to collaborate with students in China. The project would compare and contrast what it is like to be 15-years-olds in students' respective countries, i.e. address music, dress, education, hobbies, clubs, etc. Please keep that in mind as well. Thank you.
Dear Vickery
