Hello everyone out there. Just wanted to let you know what my students are working on currently. My 6th graders are finishing some informational, brochure-like blogs on freshwater pollution to show what they learned from this webquest. My 7th and 8th graders are uploading video podcasts on different biomes they studied in class.
Now if you see the same freshwater info or the same biome movie on more than one student's blog that is because they worked in teams of two and three (and on two occassions even four!) so each member of the team got to copy and paste their shared work. So don't give up if the same one shows up two or three times.
About the Blogger
I started my teaching career in South Central Los Angeles teaching in modified to full bilingual 4th and 5th grade classes. Then I moved to WA State where I have taught mainly 6th through 8th grade, mostly the 6th grade. I have enjoyed the culture clash but notice that kids are the same everywhere :o)
My areas of interest are science and technology but I also love studying ancient cultures and learning about different peoples.
