Google Maps 4th Graders started out the year writing about
something fun regarding their summer using a Google Map.
The students learned how to:
manuver around in a Google map
add and change a placemarker
write a description using Rich Text
The children had an opportunity to go back and check their work for:
correct use of capital letters and punctuation
complete descriptive sentences
using Rich Text
correct placement of place marker
I did got back and edit any work for them or have them fix any errors that they missed.
Have fun exploring our map!
Voki
Our second project was responding to a question on a Voki. Since this was our first experience I just asked a simple question. Then the students clicked on comment and got a chance to make their own Voki avatar to answer the question. They had a choice to type their answer or record it. We will do this again in the future. It's a way for the children to work on oral fluency if they record their voice. They also discovered spelling errors when they typed their response because the words were mispronounced. I learned that many people can comment to a Voki but at this point I can only go back and edit the first 22 comments so now I'll be making a diffferent Voki for each class.
