Digital Presenters

The past week students at Boone Middle School have had presenters from Thailand and Colorado via the use of technology.  Technology has allowed Boone students to have opportunities that they would not have had before.

In Ms. Leeds's class, students had a chance to learn about Thailand by visiting with Mr. Leeds while he was working in Thailand via Facetime. Students learned about the agriculture there, as well as every day life. They asked questions and Mr. Leeds shared his experiences with them.

The eighth graders just finished reading the book HERO by S.L. Rottman.  They were fortunate to be able to participate in a question and answer session with S.L. Rottman via Google Hangout.  Ms. Rottman answered students' questions about her book and she shared her experience as a writer with them.
