Famous American Inventors

This week in the Technology Lab we are learning about famous American inventors.  First, Mrs. Corbell’s class worked with a partner to explore this Symbaloo webmix with 6 different inventors. Next, we played a Kahoot game to see how much we learned.  (If you have a Kahoot account, you can view the game we played here.) Students had tons of fun answering questions about what they learned!

Famous American Inventors

This week in the Technology Lab we are learning about famous American inventors.  First Mrs. Bodovsky’s kindergarteners watched a BrainPopJr.com video about George Washington Carver.  After discussing his accomplishments and why we should remember him, students made videos using the PhotoSpeak app to share what they learned.  Their videos were compiled via iMovie on a Macbook.  Enjoy their work!

President’s Day

Mrs. Busha’s class watched this video from our February Symbaloo webmix to learn about why we celebrate President’s Day. Next, they used the Draw and Tell app to draw any symbol that reminded them of President’s Day and record their response to the question, “Why do we celebrate President’s Day?”  Their videos were compiled using iMovie on a Macbook.  Enjoy their work!

Green Screen + Research = Learning Fun

2nd grade GT students chose areas of interest to research. They used Facts4Me.com along with some guided Googling to learn about their chosen area.  After writing out their scripts, students recorded each other against a green screen reading what they learned.  Finally, they used the Green Screen by Do Ink app to combine their videos with an image to create their finished product.  Enjoy their work!
