I sure don't, but some of our Cedar Valley Jags are using technology to practice their French fluency with their pen pals. Madame Macharia's French classes communicate regularly with their pen pals from l

Not only were students challenged by perfecting their French accents and looking good for the camera, but also by integrating technology components such as operating a flip cam, uploading footage to a shared folder, converting video files, and editing the video in Windows Live Movie Maker.
Here are some of the groups collaborating in the computer Lab:

Aren't they talented?
Au revoir! Until next time, Jags!
