We solved two mysteries via Skype this week! On Thursday, we had a Skype call with our buddies from Rhode Island. We had to guess what animal they were thinking of! On Friday, we watched our final clue from our mystery class and decided that they must be from Pennsylvania, U.S.A!

We learned lots about the U.S. during our latest Skype call with 2nd Grade in Narrangansett, Rhode Island. We shared our questions with each other on Twitter so that we could prepare our answers. Here are the questions!

Ours: http://padlet.com/NiamhDG/dkn2t9g3vk8g
Theirs: http://padlet.com/mccallig/1q2xmoaogd7o

We found the answers very interesting. Our Skype buddies even sang us a Spanish song!
