Name that State Gameshow! Your Hosts: The Fourth Graders!

The fourth graders produced their own movies to see how well YOU know your New England states!

First, they collaboratively researched their states.  Secondly, each group of students wrote their scripts together. Thirdly, they decided on a green screen background, and lastly, they used the DoInk app to film one another, encouraging expression in their voices.

From beginning to end, so proud of their efforts!  Fourth graders can do it all!!

Now let's see how YOU do in their gameshow!

School Memes!

We had so much fun with this project - the fifth graders brought their "A" game for sure!  The students are learning a lot of valuable tools on their Chromebooks with this project:  how to download and upload images, take screenshots, take photos, use split screen, bookmarks, and bookmark folders plus how to mark assignments as done and turn in assignments in Google Classroom.  

Enjoy these awesome Memes! Click to enlarge.

Idiom Time for 3rd Graders!

Using UDL (Universal Design Learning) guidelines, third graders have been introduced to idioms through discussion, slide decks, musical idiom songs, and a collaborative hold the phone idiom game. 

To demonstrate their knowledge, the students chose from the following options and worked with each other to bring out their best:

  • Photograph two idioms and write a few sentences about the idiom's meaning.
  • Draw three idioms and explain what they mean.
  • Make a video acting out an idiom and explain the meaning.
  • Create a Google slideshow of at least five idioms and their meaning with pictures.
  • Think outside the box and create your own idea!

The students hit it out of the park!! It was fascinating to see what they chose, and a few students took it a step farther, by creating a stop motion and a virtual reality of their chosen idioms!!
