Technology Buddies

First and Fifth grade students will be working monthly with a "technology buddy" to create projects and share technology knowledge. Next week, they will be working with the graphic organizer software known as "Kidspiration." Kidspiration allows students to enter images and words into a web. This month's topic will be October vocabulary. Partners will brainstorm words for the month of October and enter the terms and matching images into a web. The web will be printed in color and given to the first graders for their Writers' Notebooks. During writing time, the web will be a valuable tool to help students become more independent with their spelling and vocabulary tools.
Check back next week for some photos of this exciting endeavor!
