My friend Armando, a member of my PLN, Hello Little World Skypers, has started a project.
He has embarked on a global language adventure. His VoiceThread project envisage translation of Khalil Gibran's poem on children, to be read in all languages by all nationalities of the world!!
Challenged, I have volunteered to make the mark of God's Own Country, on this embedded VoiceThread.
I have a great friend, a Malayalam poet and blogger, Jos Antony. I am getting the poem translated into Malayalam by Jos Antony. The poem will be recited by Elizabeth Johny or Manju Jojo, both members of Hello Little World Skypers.
I have invited my friend in Egpt too. Mariam El Agamy may help in translating it to Arabic and have one of her students recite the peom at VoiceThread. WOW! The accordance of technology!!
Wonderful project which help learners enjoy the poems transcending the barrier of language.
