Mrs Yocam continues her journey of integrating technology into her curriculum. Together she and I worked with the kids on content driven keynotes on a Polar Animal of their choice. Some skills used in this activity include learning about citations,researching for a specific answer, writing and rewriting after reseaching. A lot of technology skills were used such as getting good quality pictures from internet by following the rules of getting the picture with the largest resolution, copy and pasting information, organizing thoughts by use of storyboarding or plan sheets. The list goes on!
Keynotes are turning out good. One has flying Arctic terns on slide one! Awesome!
The keynotes were evaluated by a rubric. See other entries about Polar Keynote in this blog.
Now in writing the kids are writing about themselves. The information will be shared with others via a Pages newspaper template! The students want me to make one too!
TRC is totally AWESOME!
