I have always liked the book ‘Right Outside My Window’ by Mary Ann Hoberman. http://www.maryannhoberman.com Anne Mirtschin and I are using this book in our presentation for the Global Education Conference. As an extension activity to a project, I thought it would be fun to invite others to share what is right outside their windows. I was trying to come up with some way that would be really easy, would not require a sign in and would be accessible to everyone, everywhere. I thought of Padlet and started by adding my view of the leaves on the trees outside of my porch window. I shared the link with Sharon in Vermont. In less than ten minutes, she had posted her lovely view of trees. Then Adel in Tunisia posted his view and now…just a day later, we have a wonderful collection of images shared from people from across the planet. What a wonderful way for the students to see we truly are part of a connected community!

Thanks for the inspiration Mary Ann Hoberman! Thanks to all who took a few moments to share their images with the global community!
