First grade students discussed ways to be true to themselves and wrote down two words to describe that (friendly, helpful). They then used the letters in the hallway to capture pictures. Finally, they used #Keynote to put their words together. #camera #earlylearnersturnedpro

1st grade students used #clips to camouflage an animal. They focused on adding posters, effects, emojis and learned how to size objects. Soon they will be ready to independently add voiceovers, captions and photos! #stepbystep #podcastsarecoming #video

Inspired by musical album covers that use animals, ss were introduced to #ArtificialInteligence art. SS learned that AI isn’t always successful and you have to very precise with directions. They used the website craiyon.com to create their own animal inspired covers.

Students in second grade listened to the book, “That’s Not My Name”. We discussed the importance of others saying our name correctly and researched what our name means. We used #CLIPS and will be sharing our videos with each other next week.

SS in Kindergarten listened to the story Knuffle Bunny. We discussed how the author @MoWillems used REAL bnw photos and then added his colorful drawings. SS took a picture of an object they wanted, changed the filter to bnw and then used markup to add their special character. 🐇
