March 31, 2015 Technology

The students in Tracey Supple’s third grade classroom have been studying the planets. One of their projects was to work with a partner to research an assigned planet, locate or create images about that planet, decide on 5 important facts about the planet, and then create an online video using Animoto. In Animoto, the students were able to choose their video style and music. Each team worked well together and produced fun, informative videos!

For their book contract, Alyson Bull had her students design cereal boxes to advertise the books they had read in their independent reading. They also gathered 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. Some of their completed projects are shown below.
