Introductions++February+2011

2011 Welcome back to school grade 3/4's!

We will be producing a piece of work to display as soon as we return, so I hope you are all ready to start!

Gr 3’s You are required to produce a Comic Life presentation, displaying your interesting information. You must use lots of colour, different backgrounds, clear text size and photos.

Grade 4’s You are going to use [|Dabbleboard], a mind mapping tool that will help you to build on the information you have and create a more detailed piece of work. Dabbleboard allows you to create and display the reasons behind your thoughts and helps you add more detail to your work.

After having your mind map checked, locate your photos, and create a podcast.

Here are some ideas to help you choose interesting information.

Favorite colour: Favorite letter: Favorite ice cream flavor: Favorite food: Favorite drink: Favorite place to go on holiday Favorite number: Favorite sport: Favorite subject: Favorite month: Favorite song: Favorite book: Favorite movie: Favorite season: Favorite TV show: Favorite cartoon character:

Grade 4's will stay with Wes and learn how to use Dabbleboard. Create your own Dabbleboard mind map. Have it checked to see if it has plenty of detail, then begin your podcast. Your podcasts may be used by the school website so ensure they are your best work.

Grade 3's will begin to plan 10 interesting facts about yourself, writing your answers in your integrated studies book. Once this has been completed and checked you will log onto your laptop, and search for pictures to display with your facts, using Google Images.
