Elementary Announcements are Back!

Our elementary students are back to writing, producing, filming and editing their student announcements! These students work so hard each week to prep, practice and film their video. They film in front of a green screen, choose backgrounds to fit their theme and edit in the iMovie app. Their teacher then uploads the video to our Little Laker Media YouTube channel.

The current group of students are in 2nd grade. Not only are they practicing their reading fluency, tech skills and project planning, they are working together to create an authentic final project for the entire elementary school to watch! Way to go little Lakers!

Pic Collage App in 7th Grade Math

Image
Students have been using the PicCollage app on their school iPads in Mrs. Robinson’s middle school math classes. The students are asked to create their own math problem that involves rational numbers (decimals, integers, fractions). After they complete the problem, they are then asked to solve the problem and then share their problem with their classmates. The PicCollage app helps students get in the mindset of writing the problems and not just solving them. The students realize how this relates to real life and how they may use this skill set in the future!

Spanish Chatter Pix

Image
What's more fun than animals dressed up and speaking Spanish? Señora Pina's 4th, 5th and 6th grade elementary Spanish students were able to do just this! These students were learning the first person tenses of the Spanish verbs "to be" and "to have". To practice their new learning, the students were able to pick an animal that they wanted to be. They found images of their chosen animal online, saved them to their iPads and imported the images into the app "Chatterpix". This fun app allows students to add their own voice recording to any image to make it "talk". The students spoke as if they were the animal to describe their characteristics in the first person. Check out the video below for a sampling of these projects. Buen trabajo estudiantes de español!
