Getting ready for the Microsoft Skypathon
Write these words.(Copy the whole lot)
Today we watched a few Skypeathon videos and we thought of ideas for our own Skypeathon plan. Here are some of our ideas
JOBS
Greeter -1 student – Greets the incoming class by speaking about our class and going over the rules BUT no giving away of our location. At the end of the call they are also the ones that thank for the call.
Questioner –they are the kids that ask the yes or no questions, often it is beneficial if we have a decent grasp of geography and can come up with questions on the fly. We should write down our questions beforehand.
Answerer – 1 student – answers yes or no to the questions and should have a good grasp of geography. Holds up a yes or No sign.
Google Mappers – 2 students – Use Google Maps to try to help with questions or find the answer. .
Wall map & atlas mappers –are using any map tools they can to come up with more questions.
Photographer – takes photos of what is happening
TYPES OF YES NO QUESTIONS
Are you in …….(continent)?
Then try to get the north sea east west location
After that try to get the country
Then try to get the city
Does it snow in winter?
OTHER IDEAS
Each person thinks of other questions for afterwards
Two people hold the South African flag.
Bring a recording of the anthem to sing to
Have a yes sign and a No sign
Always say name before asking a question
Ask questions one to one about what you would like to be one day.
