Mrs. Ranansinghe, our technology teacher, and I have taken on a Spring Project!
We will be working with all 5th grade classrooms to model and teach not only collaboration, but research skills, tech production, and history content as well.
Students in these classes have chosen recent historical events (War in Afghanistan, The Nuclear Age, September 11th, America's Struggle with Terrorism, Homeland Security, Internet Inventors and others) to research and teach to their classmates. They are working in groups of 3 - 4, using digital resources from our FreedomFlix collection, to produce a rubric-driven presentation using Powtoons or Videlicious. The project will culminate in "students becoming teachers" presentations addressing REAL Georgia Social Studies standards.
Check back to see our progress!
