Volcanoes with Symbaloo and Popplet

The children asked if we could research volcanoes this week. We began by viewing the sites on our Symbaloo page and researching what a volcano is and what it does.

When I asked the children if they had become experts on volcanoes, they stated, 'no'. When I asked them what they thought an expert was, they decided someone who knows a lot about something. We listed everything we knew about volcanoes (four pages of information), and they decided they were experts on volcanoes.

They created presentations to share in Popplet. In their presentation, they needed to include a title, name, picture, and supporting sentences. Beyond that, their presentation was all theirs!

They did an excellent job using their quick words, sound spelling, and putting spaces between their words. Great job kindergarten!

Farm Animal Fotobabble's

We began our farm inquiry this week. We asked many questions about farms, including:
What do the animals eat?
How much water do the animals drink?
How many people need to work on the farm?
What are some of the different kinds of cows?

We found a few answers in a video (on our Symbaloo page) and on our Worldbook of Animals app on our iPads. When we finished researching, we created Fotobabble's to share an animal we liked, found interesting, or just thought was worth sharing.

Take a look and enjoy:)
