The Preamble

September 17, 2013 was Constitution Day. We learned about why our Constitution was important and the meaning.  We decided to create a quick iMovie to recite the Preamble. (Yes, I know I'm late posting this!) Enjoy!

Continents, Continents, Do You Know Your Continents?

                                                                                                                                                                         

Click on the globe and watch it spin!

This week, my students are researching the continents.  It started out small, but has turned into a huge project. The kids are learning about the environment, culture, climate, animals, and other important facts about the continents. I'm so impressed how they have worked together. The best part was using Google Earth.  Check back soon to see their finished product. 

Augmented Reality Comes to Our Class!

For the past couple of weeks my students have raved over our new found app colAR Mix! This app brings coloring pages to life!  No, seriously! Seeing is believing! This app has blown our minds!

The first page we colored was the pumpkins. Of course the kids thought it was just fun to color.  They had no clue what was coming up next! Using the colAR Mix app, we placed our iPads over the paper and out popped these moving, dancing, 3D pumpkins! Unbelievable!

Today, we completed our movie trailers about "The Bird". Once again we were amazed by the moving 3D bird that actually ate a worm!
