Slide, Flip, and Turn
 * Topic: Video Chat**


 * Description:** My class invited Mrs. Valeo's class for a video chat. We shared pictures and discussed slide, flip, and turn. The children were able to show Mrs. Valeo's Class a slide, flip, and turn dance. It was amazing!


 * Reflection:** My class and I LOVED the video chat. We were able to talk and see Mrs. Valeo's class without walking through the building. We did not have to move furniture around to fit all the children in the classroom. We were able to see the children by using our projectors. The children were able to teach a dance to another classroom with ease. It was really fun. We will continue to use this COOL TOOL.
