=Global Kids - Bring the World into Your Classroom=

For over 40 years, [|Disney's "It's A Small World"] has reminded us that we have friends and neighbors all across the globe. Today's technologies make that world even smaller...or some may say [|flatter]. However you look at it, teachers have amazing opportunities at every turn of the curriculum to connect their students to the world around them. The resources and ideas on these pages are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to bringing global awareness to the elementary classroom. Please feel free to join this space and add your own projects or ideas.

This presentation will include:


 * Sample projects from elementary classrooms


 * Making global awareness a part of your classroom everyday


 * Suggestions for finding partner teachers and classes


 * Tools to help with global projects


 * Links to sites about global awareness
