SciPod Studies |
K to 5 |
The project involves the older students reading from their science texts and recording new vocabulary as well as the definition, and using the recordings to study these new ideas. The podcasts can be shared with other readers, non-readers, and/or struggling students, as well as traded with other studetns to quiz eachother for benchmark mastery. |
Second Grade Science Textbooks |
2 to 2 |
      (5.0 stars, 1 ratings) Second graders spend the year planning and making their own science textbooks. They are learning science as well as learning how to read and write nonfiction text. |
Selfie vs Self-portrait |
9 to 12 |
      (5.0 stars, 1 ratings) This activity combines contemporary technology with archaic photographic processes the end result a one of a kind tangible self-portrait from a 200 year old process using modern technology.
