Dear Students,
We have been studying insects for several weeks now! Your job now is to choose one of the insects we have studied from the list below, and create a few fun projects to show your parents at Open House so that they can learn about these amazing insects, too! First, choose one of the following insects:
Once you have brainstormed, you will design a poster using Glogster to capture your audience's attention. See my example here. This poster will be printed, and will be used in the classroom to let your parents and classmates know what your presentation will be about!
Next, you will create a presentation using Piktochart. You will use words, pictures, and drawings to tell us more about your insect. An example can be found here.
Finally, create a Voicethread presentation to go along with your Piktochart. You will be explaining the information in your presentation. Explain why you selected the information and images you did, and provide additional commentary regarding your insect and why you chose that particular one. A link to my example voicethread is here.
When each step of the presentation is complete, and you have checked the rubric to make sure you have not left anything out, share the link to your voicethread on our Edmodo account using our class code: wxarpn
Your Wordle and Glogster creations will be printed in the classroom. Remember, I will be helping you every step of the way- have fun!
