Cool. I guess the schools will communicate through the internet. Such initiatives can only lead to more understanding for one another.
I agree with emmanuel very cool project. I am an avid trveler and always enjoy observing the similarities and differnces of America verse other countries. It would be great for the students to hear from students around the globe to understand that we are not so different. I would hope this project sparks in interest in students about other cultures.
