After almost two weeks, we finally finished all our hard work on our research papers. The kids did such a nice job. See some examples below.
We also completed a Pinterest art project to go with it. They look super cute!
(Yes that is a stegosaurus getting eaten by a T-rex).
A teacher's dream come true to have our science flow right into our writing and then a perfect art project to go along with it. I love dinosaurs and I love these projects.
The final step once our research papers were published was to add a technology element to the project. The students got to make a ChatterPix from their finished paper. ChatterPix and ChatterKid are both apps that allow kids to take or choose a photo. They can make up a silly greeting or use it as a digital element in their school work. They loved it! We lost a little steam in the publishing phase. Typing is hard work for third graders! But the promise of creating a ChatterPix helped us find the motivation to accomplish our goal. ChatterPix is free on the app store and my preschool age daughters, my third graders, and my teacher husband all love it.
