Insect Mania!

1st graders have been busy studying insects! I have really enjoyed working with Mrs. Goff, Ms. Roger, and Ms. Foote's classes on special projects related to insects in the Media Center. Please enjoy our work below and make sure your sound is turned on!

Insect Poetry from Mrs. Goff's class:

The students created their artwork and poems in class and then each student worked with me to record their poetry. We used Microsoft's Photostory to make the presentation. We have such talented artists and poets at Club Boulevard!



Insect Slideshow with Ms. Foote's class:

The students in this group learned how organize their information before creating the slideshow on Animoto. We discovered that planning a slideshow on the computer is a lot of work but we had fun learning together!



Insect Research with Ms. Roger's class:

Every day this week a small group from Ms. Roger's class came to the Media Center to learn about a different insect. We discovered that all the insect books can be found on the same shelf! We read the books together, looked at pictures on the computer, and had to find out what our insect eats, where it lives, and our favorite facts. We really enjoyed learning about stink bugs, fireflies, goliath beetles, ants, and dragonflies.

Camp Read-a-Lot

[gallery]1st Graders kicked off their Camp Read-a-Lot celebration by coming to a campfire sing along in the Media Center. Students, teachers, and even a few parents dressed up as their favorite book character! Individual classes visited the Media Center throughout the day to hear a favorite spooky tale told by Miss Stitsinger. Children sat in tents while a glowing fire crackled in the background. What a fun way to celebrate books and reading!

1st gd. Ocean Animal Research

Each student chose one ocean animal to research and then compared his/her animal to another student's animal using a Venn Diagram. The students then presented their information to each other and we hung their diagrams in the front hallway.
