Literacy Project


 
I created a VoiceThread with my first grade students.  For this VoiceThread students had to research information an animals of choice to support a science unit recently completed.  While researching they were asked to explore Internet sites and at least one informational text.  As series of questions were offered to formulate and organize the information they discovered.  From the information, the students needed to present what they learned being sure to highlight key words and concepts from their literature and science studies. Then students commented on each others projects!  Follow the link and let me know what you think!

  1. Wow, Rosanne! Did your students write all of the stories? They pronounce some very difficult words easily. What a great literacy project.
