Collaborative story telling across 2 countries building shared understanding.
We are writing our story with Kinder Pris in Borneo. The children have decided to use the following tools to help them, Skype, the class blog, Twitter, video, photographs and a Google doc.We have decided to set the story in a grave yard. Both classes have access to a grave yard. We have both been on field trips.

Inspirational ideas
Books made of stone
Flowers make things beautiful.
Black staring fears cat
Words on the cross
Stones that are magical
Magical talking trees
Magical sticks that talk
Statues that walk and fly
Drains turn into warriors and there are smells from them
There is a Dutch pyramid that looks like a castle
Broken old grave stone from an earthquake
Umbrella that someone lost or dropped the mischievous monkey makes a prank
Money and chocolate for the monkey
Magic coins and buttons that flew off and gives you wishes.
Pyramid hill for mice.
Banana tree can be be a jewel.
Here is our video for Kinder Pris.
