Interview Project

Today in language arts, we practiced interviewing adults in the building.  The students had to ask an adult questions, record his/her answers, and write a paragraph from that person's point-of-view using the information they gathered.  Then the students used the Chatterpix app on the iPads to create a video.  We had a great time with this project, and are very thankful for the adults that agreed to participate!

The Great Garbage Mystery

Since we are working on inference this week, the students used their detective skills to help me solve a mystery about my new neighbors.  I convinced them that I stole my new neighbors' garbage so I could learn more about them.  As I pulled items out of the trash, we wrote down our clues/evidence, and our inference.  For example, we inferred that they had a dog when we found an empty dog treat bag.

Animation Practice

We've been reading about illustrators and animators in language arts, and today we decided to try out some animation for ourselves.  We used the Disney Animation Academy videos to draw Joy from Inside Out.  I'm including the link so you can try more characters at home!
