These projects are examples of true "technology integration".

1. Students compose biographical information.
2. The students can type their written work onto Tool Factory Slideshow software. They add digital pictures which they have taken themselves. Children can take pictures of their family, pets, hobbies, or sports events. Students can be paired to work together.
4. The students can add their voices as narration to each slide.
5. They view the slideshow or share with their whole class, or share with another class.

This plan can be modified to use with almost any grade level and any ability level,including children with special needs.
