GVC #6: Our teams have been assigned!

We had an email today from the project co-ordinator, Janet Barnstable.

“Dear GVC Contest participants,

This is the moment you and your students have been waiting for: the team announcement!  If you are supporting more than one team, you will receive separate emails for each team.  I will send the announcement to both your personal and school emails if you have provided two. Please let your partners know WHICH email you would prefer they use.
Your team will have it's own separate Edmodo group.  Once you have signed in and joined the new group, I will make you a co-teacher.  ONLY teachers are allowed to send messages to individuals.  Students messages go to the entire group, with one exception.  They can send a personal message to a teacher.

Directions for adding students can be found at: https://support.edmodo.com/home#student


You will also see here the URL for your Team Google Site.  An email will be coming in the next few days from GVC14@gsbi.org (that’s me, and that email is ONLY used to generate the sites.  Do not reply to it.)

Here are the schools with whom you will be working over the next six months:

This is SO exciting. I am with a primary school in Taiwan and a primary school in the USA. I will also be getting to know how to collaborate on Edmodo and our Google site has been allocated. My students are super-excited as well!
