3R+Explorers+2016

Third grade students do two major research projects this year, the first being Explorers. Each student is assigned an explorer and then they spend time learning about that person. They read trade books and they use kid-safe search engines like Kiddle, Kidrex, Ducksters, and Insta Grok to do some online research. Once the students find the information, they create a storyboard to layout how they want to share what they learned. They used Wixie to create these slide presentations. Children employ the digital citizenship skill of respecting other's online work. They find and use images that are in the public domain or that are specifically for classroom use. They use sites like WPClipart, Pics4Learning, and Wikimedia Commons to find images and then they add an attribution if they use one in their presentation. by Brody || media type="file" key="Rauch.swf" by Claire || by Dylan || media type="file" key="Jacoby.swf" by Emily || by Finn || media type="file" key="Devine.swf" by Gray || by Ibby || media type="file" key="Feldman.swf" by Izzy || by Josh || media type="file" key="Ballas.swf" by Loukas || by Peyton || media type="file" key="chulik.swf" by Quinn C. || by Quinn O. || media type="file" key="Mian.swf" by Razia || by Talia || media type="file" key="Ledbetter.swf" by Timmy ||
