1st Graders Learn from Exchanging Paper Slide Videos

Mrs. Grimes and Mrs. Saunders' classes each did class research about Penguins and Sharks.  After creating their Paper Slide Videos, they exchanged videos for the other class to learn about the other animal.

Getting art class started

  Ms. Austen creates videos instructing the class on what they need to do to get class started.   This allows her class to self start while she is working to transition from one class to another.  

She has even left videos for teachers to show when they cover her classes. Not only are the videos full of instructions and directions so that everyone is prepared for their tasks -- they are fun, interesting and the kids respond to her on the video when she asked questions... even though they know she couldn't actually hear them.

4th grade students still benefit from teacher in her absence

While the teacher was away, students were still able to focus on academics.  The teacher video a lesson on how to create a Patty Paper "protractor" and how to use the new tool while she was away from the classroom.  This allowed the substitute to pause the video when students needed extra time and to rewind for students to hear the information again using the vocabulary and concepts of the classroom teacher.

Using Paper Slides to show what 1st graders are thankful for.

First graders created a Paper Slideshow to show what they are thankful for.  Thank you First Grade for sharing.

1st graders using paper slides

Our first graders have been very busy creating paper slides.  Mrs. Grimes's class, shown here, created a paper slide show to demonstrate what they learned about bats.
