For their November book contract, Ms. Bull had students design cereal boxes to advertise the books they had read in their independent reading. They also created 3 collectible charms to represent the protagonist, conflict, and theme from the book. They presented their work in the form of a promotional TV advertisement that advertised both the cereal and the book. Enjoy!

Students in Tracey’s third grade have been learning about different kinds of weather. Students, working in groups, selected one weather event to explain in detail. Using a “green screen” the students were videotaped in front of the screen describing their weather event. The students then selected one ideal background image and using iMovie, they created a weather newscast.
