Exciting Things to Come!!

Finally!!! We are ready to begin working on creating glogs this coming week! I am so excited! I hope my students enjoy it as much as I do!  They will be reading short stories and displaying the story's elements with graphics and words...their goal will be to show how the elements work together to present the theme/author's purpose!! Wish us luck!

Check out the glog I made as an example!! I love this story!!"Liza Lou and the Yeller Belly Swamp" by Mercer Mayer


As we head farther into my favorite month, we will soon hit my favorite holiday, Halloween!!!! In honor of this night of haunts and goblins, my students will use the characteristics of legends that we having learning to write their very own ghost legend!!! The twist- it will be a Digital Story!!
