Our First & Wonderful Google Hangout

Today we had our first Google Hangout with RVS (Roseau Valley School) in Dominion City, Manitoba. We started off by asking them if they know about Haiku poems. We shared some of our own Spring Haiku poems with them. We ended our part by giving them a challenge. We challenged them to make their own Haiku poems. After, we shared our part, RVS shared theirs.
They told us about Spine Poetry. Spine poetry is when you put the spines of books together to make a poem. It has to make sense and has to have a theme or topic. For example, if your theme is about food, all your book titles have to be related around the topic of food. RVS challenged us to make our own spine poems by next Friday. Next Friday, we will "hangout" again and share both types of poems.
Mrs. Collette told us that Morgan was going to share her spine poem with us. She was selected because it was her birthday today! We sang Happy Birthday to her! She was a little embarrassed but said thank you!
Carl, another student from RVS told us a joke. "Who is annoying and turns into a butterfly?"…Carson had guessed it! It was a chatter-pillar. .  (hahahahaha) Carson also shared a joke about a mushroom. We shared some jokes and back and forth.
In the end, we were super excited to have our first Google Hangout! We made some new friends that we will be sharing lots of conversations with!
We look forward to our next Google Hangout!
Love: The Monsters
