So far we're covered in kid's shamrock tattoos and we've talked about St Patrick and leprechauns and rainbows. I was a little torn on talking about leprechauns, but I figured we teach them there's an Easter bunny, so why not:)<BR/><BR/>On the tech stuff. We have skype, we used it once and I liked it was a fun way to connect and see faces, so much more personal!eknoxukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14391717533730031265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442005414487201262.post-30306260264098047402009-03-17T14:36:00.000-05:002009-03-17T14:36:00.000-05:00Hello HLA!

First of all I think Skype is great we all use it but being a mom who is more into her kids education than communication I have to go with the SMART BOARD! My kida are in 2 different private schools ( same ownership) and EVERY classroom is a "Smart Class". It is truly amazing how everything from their textbook pages to power point can be displayed for the class. It is a very expensive system but is worth every penny. I hope everyone has a great day!maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13597600853257980369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442005414487201262.post-83320634485527921652009-03-17T14:35:00.000-05:002009-03-17T14:35:00.000-05:00I am wearing a green jacket and I just got a compl...I am wearing a green jacket and I just got a compliment on it from across campus.<BR/><BR/>No pinching here.Claudia @ Highlowahahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18156269935738164157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8442005414487201262.post-59715569981258582492009-03-17T14:13:00.000-05:002009-03-17T14:13:00.000-05:00Sooo......

And in fact, I'm sitting here in the Hall Director office, and a fellow Hall Director was just telling me that she has to use Skype to interview for a professional position next week! It's crazy how far technology has brought us...and I love it!<BR/><BR/>Happy St. Patty's Day!<BR/><BR/>PS.
