2nd Pinnacle Project

I have ventured into the world of googledocs with my students. This has been more than just a challenge but they are starting to get it. We are making books using google presentations where I make the title page and they each are assigned a numbered slide to type in. The hardest part was getting them to stay in their slide and not type in others! This will be a project that lasts over a few days and the final one I do for my project should be great. We are doing a Dr. Seuss unit and they are each making a slide typing what they do NOT like as a making connections lesson from Green Eggs and Ham. We will also be doing a graphing activity on google where they have to tell me their favorite Dr. Seuss character to go with our graphing unit. Once I get them used to logging in it should be great. It has taken months of typing practice to get them ready but they can type successful sentences now. Can't wait to see the final project!
