SHARE & Connect:

Journal Topic Week 1: Share

• Record a video of yourself in which you talk about your response to this post. (choose Flipgrid)
• Write a blog post in response to this post. (choose Padlet)
  • You can decide how many people see your post; if you want to keep it private, write in your journal, but if you want to share it write a blog post and add the link to your post on the Padlet.
  • You will get more views of your post by writing an interesting title, adding an image, and including an introduction in your post on the Padlet.

CONNECT & Reflect:

• Read the responses left by other students, watch their videos, and explore the posts on both sharing sites (Padlet and Flipgrid).
• Ask clarifying questions to grow the conversation, make connections, and leave quality comments on other readers' posts.
• Reflect on how your thinking about your original post has changed, reflect on why your thinking changed, and then revise.

Note: Teachers can print a paper version of the Bingo Card (that's how I use this activity) or students can use the digital document and right click in the boxes to fill with a color when they have heard a vocabulary term from their Bingo board. This activity would work with any documentary about beavers, but I will be using "American Beaver" from the National Geographic Channel.
