Time for a Video Chat . . . But About What?

Dear Students,

I’m pleased to announce that  I’ve been able talk with Mrs. Rombach, and we’ve come up with a tentative plan to connect our classes for a video chat in the coming week.  We thought we’d give each class the opportunity to create a short skit or song to introduce yourselves–short as in just a few minutes–but we’d like your input on how best to use the remaining thirty minutes or so of our time.

Should we post a writing prompt ahead of time?  Write something together?  Write what?

Would you rather prepare questions for each other ahead of time?

Or choose a few students from each class to share a piece of writing?

Have something else in mind entirely?

Please comment on this post with your suggestions!
