Buncee Buddies: Digital Pen Pals

Buncee Buddies is the new platform for connecting students and classrooms around the world through digital pen pals.

Below is an excerpt from their blog...

"Whether it’s celebrating Hanukkah in Iowa, or Christmas in Hong Kong, classrooms from across the nation and globe will create and share buncees that highlight their individual and community holiday traditions. Using text, audio recordings, videos, photos, stickers, and animations, students from various cities around the world will bring their traditions to life with buncee. Then, through Skype and Flipgrid, each class will share and explain their creations to other classrooms."

PikiFriends

PikiFriends is a wonderful site for introducing web 2.0 skills via an online "pen-pal" system. This is ideal for education because it is being filtered and teachers have a lot of control over student accounts. Also, there are a number of great resources on this site and an already well designed curriculum that helps integrate PikiFriends into a classroom.

BTW, this is designed for Jr High & High School students.
