On the 20th of
November we got a very special opportunity to Skype a school of year 6`s in
America. We Skype Nevada, Las Vegas.
The foods that Summerset Academy
loved
were
cookies, Steak, pizza, hamburgers, KFC. We said that
our favourite Aussie foods were Tim tams, Fish and chips, Vegemite, Carmelo
Koala. I said to the Americas do you like s mores which
it like a vita wheat biscuit with melted chocolate and a marshmallow. In the
end it makes a sandwich.
The school in Las Vegas was called Somerset Academy. We didn`t talk about China we spoke about USA and
Australia what we loved about each other’s countries. I think it was good to
talk to something different. I think it was really nice that Summerset Academy
stayed after school to connect with us because that would be the only time we
could connect with them otherwise we would have to be at school at 7:30 and
earlier.
We took turns of asking each other questions, some people asked funny questions
and we all had a laugh. For example they asked us do we like Vegemite and we all shouted yes and had a bit of a laugh.
We also talked about the
different in America and Australia’s Christmas`s our Christmas is quite warm and
there’s is quite white and cold. I personally think from experience that
American`s Christmas`s are more decorated than ours. What I am trying to say is
that they get into the Christmas spirit more than us.
It was nice to talk to students, which made the
talk a bit more fun and interesting because we had a lot of laughing and
good questions. Also children give a different perspective to adults.
