Johnny Appleseed!

The third graders spent time researching the legend of Johnny Appleseed through video and wrote lists of nouns and adjectives about the John Chapman in conjunction with the third grade social studies unit.  Then using Tagexdo, a combined list was used to create apple word clouds.  Terrific job third graders!

Leaf Snap with First Grade!

The first graders have been studying leaves in science class and so we took a nature walk to collect different kinds of leaves.  Then using the Leaf Snap app, they found out all about the trees from which their leaves came.  It was amazing to see them using this technology and the excitement of what they found.   They finished by creating fall scenes on the Drawing Pad App.  Such impressive first graders!!
