Dawn Morris

"Face to Face - Friends Across the World" is a project designed to increase cultural awareness at Crestview Middle School. Spanish teacher Dawn Morris would like for her students to foster friendships with students from Spanish-speaking countries in an effort to improve foreign language skills. Web cameras will allow students to converse in real time during a video conference. This interaction and immersion project will illustrate to students that they are members of a global community. Students will discuss an array of topics from social issues to pop culture in order to build vocabulary and increase knowledge on a different culture. Conducting conversations online will encourage students to improve fluency. Morris resides in Wildwood.
