Third Grade Canadian Tech Projects

The last unit of our school year was on Canada. I created a GoogleTrek to introduce the students to the country and prepare them for their final project. To view or use our Canadian GoogleTrek check out this link. To learn how to make your own GoogleTrek, check out this link.

Once the students completed the GoogleTrek, they picked a province or territory to research. Students were allowed to use any technology they wanted to complete the project. To see the outline the students needed to follow, click here for the Google Doc.

Below are some the projects the students completed:

Class of 2010-11 Celestial Animoto Videos

As promised, I am posting my students Animoto videos. This was a two month project where students chose an unknown celestial object and learned how to do online research on this object including discerning between credible and questionable resources, how to complete bibliographies in MLA format, how to install a screen shot app so they could import their bibliography as a jpeg, into Animoto and more. Understand that this was a big undertaking for them and there are a few things we still need to address such as how to edit all the students in a timely manner. So you will find some grammatical errors. At any rate, the students worked quite hard and jumped way over the bar set for them. Take the time to watch a few of them, I think you will be pleased with the results.
