Grade 6
School: Wheatland Junior High School, Wheatland, WY
Planned By: Jill Stidham
Original Author: Jill Stidham, Wheatland
Each student needs their own copy of the book, HOLES, to complete projects during and after class in pairs, groups and alone. We will be creating multimedia presentations throughout the book study and will use the SPRINGBOARD program as a guide for the literature study component. I want to allow students the time and resources to take their understanding of the book's concepts to the next level and utilize multiple technologies in the process. Funds are currently not available and we need HELP! This will be a very worthwhile project and could make a huge difference for my students, which include ESL and Special Education students.
Comments
I have everything I need to get started except the 100 books and the printer.
