Startup project

We have just received our XOs. Our first plan, before going into more ambitious ideas, is to see how kids, teachers, and families take it. For that, we have proposed the directors of the school (Escuela Padre Castaneda in La Plata City) to do a pilot with kindergarten kids. The project will take place during the second part of 2008. The goal is to see if kids (3 to 5 years old) can take the XO home and introduce their families to do some basic stuff (such as taking pictures of themselves to share with other families). After some weeks of work in the classrooms, XOs (and their kids) are ready to start traveling.

This is the [brief project statement] as it was presented to the school directors (in Spanish).

Here are some pictures of the kids exploring the XOs in the classroom.

We have set up a [facebook group] to help us stay in contact
