Endangered Animals

6/18/2014

0 Comments

 
For the Grade 3 & 4 unit on biodiversity, the students studied endangered animals. To share their knowledge about an animal of interest, students were introduced to iMovie trailers and combined images and key facts about their endangered animals, to educate others. When working with iMovie trailers, it is always a challenge to choose the right words. However, once successful, a powerful message will come across. Completing an activity like this, helped the Grade 3 & 4 students become more familiar with searching and saving images online to then insert them into their video. This activity also allowed students to develop their French vocabulary related to animals and key terms of biodiversity and extinction. This Grade 3 & 4 class, really enjoy every opportunity they get to create something with the iPads and always work hard to produce a final product. 

Here are their video's:

For the PYP unit Transportation, Grade 1 and 2 students were introduced to the application "Comic Life". The students task was to write a story about their missing class owl. Discussions around this task evolved talking about different modes of transportation the owl could have used to get to each location. This was a fun assignment that helped the students work on their keyboarding skills and their French writing.
