October Happenings

October was filled with digital fun!

Kindergarten students listened to the story Go Away Big Green Monster and then created their own Big Green Monster. Using the app ChatterPix we brought these monsters to life.
Listen to these Little Monsters talk!


Grade 2 explored Google Slides.
Students added their own description of their Halloween Costume. They even found clip art to add to their slide.
Click below for their adjective filled writing.


Grade 3 students also explored Google Slides. Working collaboratively all the students added their name to a slide in live time. They had fun watching multiple names appear.
Click through Would You Rather? Where would you add your name?


Build a Jack O Lantern
This Google Slides introduced students to copy and paste to create their design. They then added a descriptive paragraph about their new friend.

MA Stem Week

MA Stem Week

October 22-26 is MA STEM Week, a new initiative sponsored by Governor Baker to spark student interest and knowledge. He is asking educators at all grade levels to participate by planning lessons, events, and activities focused on science, technology, engineering, and math throughout the week.
This may be anything from nature walks, problem-solving STEM activities, creating (legos, blocks, recycled materials) to more in-depth curriculum based projects.

I created a  MA STEM Week Choice Board with digital ideas.

Students have been exploring many creative and innovative projects this week.
