Mail from Fiona Beal from South Africa

This is part of the mail Miss Fiona Beal sent me yesterday and I would like to share it with you!

"... Wow, those stories are amazing, absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much and congratulations on getting your students to write at home. What a feat!!"
"[...] are you still keen to do a collaboration with Mr Millward in Canada ?[...]they are ready to do the three way collaboration. We start the story, Mr Millward's class continues and your students finish? Do you still want to do it that way? If you like the idea I will also get mine to start their introductions tomorrow![...]"

What do you think?

Hello Miss Ale,
Very interasring! Now we are going to also do it with students of Canada! Ohh! Thats GREAT! Say to her YES, because it is a fabulous idea! I think that Fiona Beal addmire us becuase she talks about us in the mail, in the blog, wiki and with her students! We are going to became FAMOUSE! I think that the conclusion that you got among the three teachers is amazing, finishing is the coolest and nicest PART! Because you can finish how you want and decide if the final part can be open, closed, red hunnging! Many things.. NOw yes, I have to put the THINKING CAP, to do it WONDERFUL. YES! YES! I loove teh idea! But we are going to do it in class, or at home like the other one??? In groups or alone???? All these questions are if you say to her yes ehh! Well, the idea is Great! I would loove to do it... Now we are going to know how another country more writes and expresses her ideas! YES!! YES!

Miss Ale,
I think that this project that we are about to finish is awesome, as Fiona said, I completely agree with her. Up to now really I am enjoying this kind of porject and I think that I will enjoy it. It never came to my mind this project but I knew that we were going to do something not familiar to us with the people of South Africa- When you told us what we were going to do I wanted the time come rushing because with another point of view I knew that me and the members of my group and all the groups will enjoy this " project " a lot and then we will think that it was a wonderfull expearence to do, so much that we will want it to repeat it. Comunicate with people around the world threw a computer, a BLOG is GREAT. Imagine that if we don't have a blog nor a computer we couldn't do alll this that we are doing, we couldn't done anything at all! The most amazing mart is this one... Fiona thinks that our stories are amazing! She send you an email and answered back!!! I want to repeat this expearence 10 times per year, I think it is really good. I will tell everyone in the school to ask you if they can do this expearence and see how marvellous it is!
Sory I get inspired!
Keep on posting,
Kisses & Hugs
