Over the course of a the past two weeks, I have been working with my 2nd grade students on a language arts lesson that I wanted to use our technology standards too. So, I took the writing components of the lesson and extended the lesson to incorporate technology as the finished product. The result of these lessons were: students wrote a fable, students illustrated their fable, students recorded their fable (technology), and students typed their fable their fable.
As a surprise to the students I am compiling their work to create a classroom Fables movie. This movie will be used to demonstrate to other teachers especially primary grade teachers that technology can be used in their classroom.
At this time I am unable to share the movie with the public because we are checking county protocol for personal presentation. I soon as I have permission I will gladly share this wonderful experience with you.
