Students from Hemphill videoconference with their teacher who was in Egypt!

Recently, Mrs. Nora Rodriguez traveled to Egypt to visit her niece. Before she left, she wanted to make sure that she would be able to talk with her students while she was gone.  She set up a blog to record important information about her trip.  One morning around 9 am (4 pm in Egypt) she videoconferenced with her students to talk about the place she was visiting, the culture, the things she had seen, and the foods that she ate. To prepare for the videoconference, her class looked at a few pictures she had sent of herself standing in front of a pyramid and cruising around on a camel. However, during the videoconference, she was in the bustling city! The students were able to learn about the similarities and differences between the place she was visiting and our city of Kyle.
