Understanding
Alaska and Its People
The best way to
discover the unique qualities of a place is to talk with the people who
live there. What would you ask someone who lived in Alaska?
To share information
through a classroom exchange, students should divide into small groups and
set up one e-mail account per group.
Once e-mail accounts
are active, connect your classroom with a classroom in Alaska by clicking

Fun
Things to Do
 |
Take
a digital photograph of the world outside your classroom, and ask
your e-pals to do the same. Share the photo through an e-mail
attachment. |
|
If
you don't have a digital camera, use a regular one to take a
picture. Then scan your photograph and send it to your e-pals
as a JPEG file. |
|
If
you do not have a digital camera or a scanner, you can always send
photographs of your class, school, or community to your e-pals
through the U.S. Postal Service. |
|
Ask
your e-pals to describe a typical school day. |
|
Ask
your e-pals to describe their recreational activities. |
|
Ask
your e-pals to describe their community and state. |
|
Keep
a journal of what you learn. |
