Reading Discovery with Barbara Bush

Last week an elementary school in the Parkway School District connected to a very special videoconference- a connection not only with children all over North America, but with former First Lady Barbara Bush. Technology Integration Specialist Ashley Deckelman shared: “Today was amazing!  We were able to do a videoconference with Barbara Bush and schools all over the country,  even a school in Canada!  It was awesome to see the different classrooms, students, and ideas that were shared.  Mrs. Bush was a fantastic host, with such “real” answers to the questions that were asked.  She truly connected with the students when she spoke about her life, and literacy.  A big thanks to all who had a part in making this happen!!”
