Thank you very much to all of you that were there with us in today's presentation. It was an incredible experience for us, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. Researching and talking about the natural wonders is awe-inspiring. This was the first step of a global project that is already taking off. My students presented 3 natural wonders in Brazil - Iguazu Falls, Lençois Maranhenses, and Roraima Mount. We practiced a lot in class and I guess that all the practice reflected in the quality of the presentations. Congratulations to my students, Eduarda, Izabela, and Érika! My teacher-friends and I are very proud of you. None of this would happen you weren't as dedicated as you are. Our audience was really supportive. They were educators from the USA (TN, TX, NC, and IL), from Jordan, and from India. Special thanks to Michael Cunningham, whose work with global video conferences has been inspiring me; to Ruth Valle, who, among many other things, introduced me to Michael and gave me self-confidence; and to Sebastian Panakal, who invited me to the coolest group of educators ever. You all have really inspired me and given me strength to conceive a project this big. Thank you! If you would like to work with us in this project, feel free to get in touch. Don't worry if your students are on Summer vacations. You can join the project after you resume school. I can't wait to watch presentations from other classes and learn about the natural wonders in your country/region! | Muito obrigado a todos que estiveram conosco hoje. Foi uma experiência incrível para nós, e esperamos que tenham gostado tanto quanto nós gostamos. Pesquisar e falar sobre as maravilhas da natureza inspira nossa admiração e espanto. Esse foi o primeiro passo de um projeto global que já está decolando. Meus alunos apresentaram 3 maravilhas do Brasil: Cataratas do Iguaçu, Lençois Maranhenses, e Monte Roraima. Praticamos muito em sala de aula e sentimos que todo esse esforço valeu a pena e foi refletido na qualidade das apresentações. Parabéns a esses alunos, Eduarda, Izabela e Érika. Meus colegas professores de outros países e eu estamos muito orgulhosos de vocês. Nada disso seria possível se vocês não fossem tão dedicadas. Nossa audiência deu um excelente apoio. Eram educadores dos EUA (Texas, Tennessee, Carolina do Norte, e Illinois), da Jordânia, e da Índia. Agradecimentos especiais a Michael Cunningham, cujo trabalho com video conferências globais tem me inspirado; a Ruth Valle, quem, além de muitas outras coisas, me apresentou ao Michael e me deu auto-confiança; e a Sebastian Panakal, que me convidou para a comunidade de educadores mais legal que existe. Todos vocês tem me inspirado muito e me dado forças para conceber um projeto dessa invergadura. Muito obrigado! |
