Information Report Writing: Air Jaws
We are currently exploring Information Report Writing in class and using the topic of Air Jaws. Air Jaws refer to the Great White Sharks that breach the water in False Bay, South Africa.
An example of GoogleSlides.
This image is of George's reading activity using GoogleSlides. I made up the format, shared the document with all the class and now they are using their reading text to complete.
Chromebooks in Room 13.
This week the children in Room 13 have been able to use the Chromebooks to enhance their learning. All the children signed in to their accounts, however only 11 children used the Chromebook for their learning tasks.
The children were sent a GoogleDoc of the writing framework for an information report, which they are currently completing. This enabled the students to see what is required for an information report and plan according to the structure.
In addition to Google Docs, the children were provided a framework in GoogleSlides to complete their Reading Activities. The children will continue to work through this next week.
When I create activities using the Google Drive and share this with the children, their work automatically attaches to the Classroom Drive file. This enables me to monitor their learning and to check what they are doing on the Google Drive.
I will post some information for parents to see how the Google Drive works.
