Special Skype Session for PFTSTA Open House
[<a href="http://storify.com/TaylorLibrarian/pftsta-skypes-with-author-jon-voelkel" target="_blank">View the story "PFTSTA Skypes with Author, Jon Voelkel" on Storify</a>]<h1>PFTSTA Skypes with Author, Jon Voelkel</h1><h2>On Thursday, August 15th, PFTSTA held its annual Open House for parents to meet the teachers. Power Skills teacher, Kelly Maher, wanted to demonstrate to the parents how the Skype TV in her classroom could be utilized. The librarian, Elizabeth Kahn, scheduled Jon Voelkel to Skype with the parents during the Open House that lasted from 6:25PM until 8PM. There were four different groups of parents that moved in and out of the classroom during the evening. Jon sat at his computer the entire evening to speak with each group of parents for about 5 minutes. </h2><p>Storified by Elizabeth Kahn · Fri, Aug 17 2012 16:14:04</p><div>IMG_1387[1]PFTSTA Library</div><div>Ms. Maher explains to Jon how she envisions the sessions will work. </div><div>RT @TaylorLibrarian: Author, Jon Voelkel, talks to 6th grade parents during Open House on the new tv.
