Happy Mother’s Day!
This week in the Technology Lab students made a digital present for Mother’s Day. Student chose their tool using this Symbaloo webmix. Enjoy their work!
Inventors
Recently, we learned about some famous Inventors via this Symbaloo webmix.
Students used a recording sheet to take notes with a partner. (In the interest of time, students were given a cloze recording sheet.) Next, we played a Kahoot game with partners, using their notes to aid in answering questions. To view the Kahoot game we played, click here.
Rocks!
This week in the Technology Lab students learned about rocks via this Symbaloo webmix.
Some students choose to Tweet about what they learned about rocks.
President’s Day
Mrs. Benson’s class used BrainPopJr.com to learn about either George Washington or Abraham Lincoln. Next, they used the ChatterPix Kids app to share what they learned. Their videos were compiled using iMovie on a Macbook. Enjoy their work!
Winter Words
Mrs. Benson’s class wrote and labeled winter words using their choice of the Drawing Pad app or Paint Go (by abcya.com) on their Macbooks. Their work was compiled into a slideshow using Kizoa.com. Enjoy their work!
Skyping with Santa
White Oak Primary students had fun this morning Skyping with Santa! Santa was very kind to take time out of his busy schedule to answer all our questions. Thank you Santa Claus! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Mrs. Benson’s class made Christmas cards using this card maker from abcya.com. Before making them, we discussed how our military serves our country every day of the year, even on holidays. Students were asked to keep our service men and women in mind as they created their cards. These cards have been printed out and sent to a group of our military men and women serving overseas. Enjoy their work below!
Merry Christmas to our service men and women! Thank you for your dedication to our country!
