1001 Flat World Tales: The Future (and Hello, Kazakhstan and Israel!)

I’ve been wishing aloud for some time that more non-Anglo countries would join the 1001 Flat World Tales project. So when Hagit from Israel (via my membership in ePals) and another teacher soon to begin work in Kazakhstan expressed interest in joining the project, you can imagine how happy that made me.

That brings the current list of participants to:

1. Korea
2. Denver
3. Honolulu
4. Hannibal, MO, USA
5. New Brunswick, Canada
6. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
7. Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
8. Pennsylvania
9. Two schools in Australia
10. Shanghai, China
11. Serbia
12. Israel (fingers crossed)
13. Kazakhstan (ditto)

Imagine the ’07-’08 mix for this project. We can all change partners.

But where is the Arab world? The African? The Latin American? The West European?

Patience. This project is only two and a half months old.

(And now is a good time to throw your hat in for next year. Sign up at the 1001Teachers wiki, and we’ll take it from there.)
