Technology In and Out of the Classroom!

The past couple of weeks our class has been learning about surveys and graphing. The students were able to create their own survey questions, survey their class and then think about their results. Yesterday, our class then went to the Maker Lab with Mrs. Payne and Mr. Hadd and we were able to graph our results on a website called Kids Zone: Create a Graph.

The graphs are on display outside our classroom on the bulletin board.

Here is the website: https://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/createagraph/



Later that day, our students learned about a new app we have on our iPads called Razz Kids.
This is a reading fluency and comprehension app that gives the students books at their "just right" level. After they read and listen to a book, the app asks them comprehension questions. The students did a great job! This will now be an option during our reading workshop.
