Blog Post Commenting in G1

Qr Codes in G1

Grade one students were really excited to see the fruits of their labor. The previous week students had worked diligently to record book reviews of their favorite book. After recording and taking a photo of either their book cover or themselves holding the book, students made a QR code of their video. Then, it was time for students to scan and watch each other's book reviews!  It was an excellent culminating apptivity for their writing unit on writing reviews.

NF Text Features in iMovie

A student in Mrs. DiGiovanni's class used the app iMovie to show what he had learned about nonfiction text features.

iMovies with Mr. Mike's Class

Mr. Mike's first grade class is learning how to use one of the new features in iMovie iOS.  They made movies giving reasons why being a student at SAS is so fantastic!  Here are a few samples below.

QR Code Book Reviews

Last week, grade 1 students finished their Writer's Workshop Unit on Opinion Writing and recorded a video persuading readers to check out their favorite book.  Then, students created QR code posters for their book review video. A sample can be seen below. Ultimately, the QR codes of books that can be found in our PS library will be taped directly onto the library book.  This way, students can use iPads in the library to watch a review of the book to help them decide if they want to check it out to read or not.
