Week 9 Thing 22

Week 8 Thing 21

I can see using Storybird in Language Arts for writing.  Having the kids select pictures/art work then come up with a story to go along with them would really have them use their creative juices.  This can also be used instead of book reports.  Students can retell a book they just read...extend it....or change the ending.  I liked creating one.  Also you can use it collaboratively.  More than one person can add/create/write on one story.  Talk about collaboration!

Google Advanced Search will allow me to safely let the kids find information at their level.  It will also help me when I am searching for things....only gives me appropriate leveled information!  :)

Week 3 Thing 5-b

Let's try this again.  In the Mixbook galleries I found a book that I feel would help with student's creative writing.  Students are given selected photos...they can arrange them in any order.  Then they compose a story to go along with the pictures
