Welcome to the New World Explorers!

 As part of their social studies unit on explorers, fourth graders made these creative news videos!  They wrote scripts with clever lines for the interviewers and the explorers.  Then they learned how to film each other, and finally, came up with spectacular ideas to make their interview one of a kind! Each group also chose their background and some helped with editing! So impressed with their work from start to finish!

Writers, Actors, and Producers - Incredible!

3rd Grade Idioms!

Third graders have been studying idioms in technology through an introductory discussion, teacher presented slideshow, musical idiom video, and a collaborative hold the phone idiom game. In the following videos they acted out the idiom and let us know what it really means! The creativity was "off the charts!"

Our Special People! By First Grade

 First graders performed in their FIRST green screen movie!! Each student shared one special person and why that person is special.  They did a FANTASTIC job!!! So grateful for our special people!

3rd Grade Continent Movies!!

Third graders took a deep dive into social studies research, learning interesting facts about the seven continents.  Then they created a script, practiced their lines and filmed a movie using green screen technology!  Impressive!

Second Grade Landmark Movies!

Second grade has been busy traveling the country through our LEEF Virtual Reality goggles to learn about the U.S. landmarks!  Then they researched each landmark, made creative and clever Google slideshows and from that created a script!  

Today they take YOU with them on a tour of each one.  They worked hard on speaking clearly and using expression.  The second graders did such a great job, you just may see them on the next travel show!  Enjoy!

Osmo Time in 1st and 5th Grades!

Students discovered the world of Osmo by practicing addition and subtraction (1st) and completing coding challenges (5th) through interacting with the digital world on their iPads.  Every single student was engaged for 40 minutes and not wanting to stop at the end of class. That's success!

Guest Teacher teaches animation!

Fourth grader, Fanchi, taught her class how to do animation using the Flip-a-Clip app on the iPads.  So proud of her iniative, sharing her skills, and how well she did in her teaching debut!! She helped the students who had questions and gave tips and tricks - plus the kids LOVED the app!  We now have 4th grade animators! Thank you Fanchi!!!
