Skype Meets Social Studies: International Education
TCDSB students are participating in a Social Studies project with their school counterparts in Jamaica this month. The project was organized through the TCDSB Community Relations Department. The aim is for students of participating schools to learn from and exchange information about each other’s culture. Immaculate Heart of Mary students were one of two groups to participate on February 11th. Their partner in Jamaica was Franklin School. St. Dominic Savio "skyped" with Whitfield School and, on February 12th, students at St. Thomas More interacted with their counterparts at Islington High School in Jamaica.
Both students and teachers are interested in having a follow-up and were also thinking of doing/giving something for students in Jamaica during this celebration year of Charity!
