about martin goes to mount everest

Martin GT Magnet Middle School is going to Everest!  We are “traveling” with Chip Popoviciu, who is a local Cisco engineer. As Chip makes the trek from Raleigh to Nepal, attempting to Summit Everest in May, we will communicate with each other through innovative technologies. We will be blogging about our experiences in the classroom, as we all journey as a team to the top of the world!

For more detailed background information on the Everest project, visit the following websites:

All right Martin! Good luck, and Godspeed. You'll be walking in the footsteps of Hillary and Norgay, so you'll be in good company. I look forward to following this blog.

Welcome to Golo! I wish for all of you A++ on your project : ) Good Luck!

Welcome to Golo. Have fun traveling to Mt Everest via technology.

Hello class! Welcome to GOLO! Have fun at Mt Everest!

great project for the kids...have them read..."into thin air" by john karchut (mp) it covers the worse year in climbing history on everest. not a cheery book but very revealing...

How come we never got to do anything like this when I was in Middle School?You lucky guys and gals! Have fun!
