Kindergarten has been working in an iPad app called Educreations. This app allows them to take a picture of their work and then record themselves explaining their thinking. Our first time using this tool we described features of our Monsters. The next time we talked about the 5 food groups - foods we like in these groups.

1st Grade used powerpoint to create a book. We used the book Press Here by Herve Tullet as a mentor text. The students were introduced to a couple of tech skills: text box, typing, creating shapes, copy and pasting, and how to manipulate the shapes size and color. Below are a couple of examples of some Books created: The students needed to create a storyboard before they worked on powerpoint to create their book, and unfortunately we had to print in B&W, so we missed the colors they added. There were so many amazing books created.

2nd Grade made paper airplanes as part of an unplugged coding activity to relate the concept of Algorithms back to everyday activities. The had to follow the directions given by their partner to create their airplanes. It was lots of fun getting to see them fly!
