First grade students used Kids Pix to create their first slideshows. Students were given a topic for each slide and had to express themselves using all the tools available on Kids Pix.

They were so proud of their final projects.

Students did extensive research on a topic of their choice. They created an original “All About” book which combined their findings and original artwork. The finished products were amazing. We then converted these hard copies into digital books on the iPad using the Book Creator App. Books were then uploaded to FlipSnack.com in order to create digital online books.

Mia’s Book – All About Big Cats

Noah H’s Book – All About Yoga 

Ariel’s Book – All About Hawaii

Liem’s Book – All About Israel

Aviva’s Book – All About Legos

Jonathan’s Book – All About Football

Kids in Kindergarten can do anything! We just completed a unit on word processing. My K students can create a document, type, stylize text, add clip art, and search for images on the Internet. If you need any pointers they’d be happy to help.
