2nd Grade
(use our school code KDSJVG)
The second graders have been working very hard on a digital research project about animals. They each chose the animal they wanted to learn about, searched for information, took notes, and then created drawings and a report. They published a class book and then created a video that contains all of their reports! Here is the book!
Here is the 2nd Grade Animal Research project in video format! The students researched, took notes, drew a computer art picture of their animal subject, produced a PowerPoint slide of factual information, and narrated their researched paragraph using a program called PhotoStory. They hope you might learn something new about these Amazing Animals!
Stay Tuned! The video version will be coming to this spot very soon!
