Skyping Yellowstone National Park


On Jan. 25th the students participated in a skype with Yellowstone National Park.  The students were surprised when I told them that I had a skype planned, but it wasn't a mystery state skype!  Kara, the park ranger, was extremely energetic and very patient with the many questions that we had!  Prior to the skype we viewed the park using one of their webcams.  Students also read the brochure for the park and highlighted things they learned and questions that they had - all not knowing that they would be speaking to the Park Ranger in a matter of minutes!!
