Did you know that ISS has a sister school in China called BISS? They are located in Beijing. Recently one of their Kindergarten classes invited us to participate in a fun project they were working on as part of their unit of inquiry in Mandarin. They took photos of Flat Stanleys in places around their school and asked us some questions: What can you see in the picture? Where is this place? What can we do there? Who is the person in the picture? What is his or her job?

Next we viewed our friends' photos in a slideshow and recorded our voices over them using an app 'Shadow Puppet'. We hope our answers will help our friends with their inquiry about schools. We certainly had fun viewing their photos and thinking about another ISS school in China!
