C4K Summary #1

C4K#1
The first student that I responded to was a girl in Ms. Naugle's 4th grade Math class. The students were learning about Geometry and wrote a response about what they learned in class on that particular day. Rachel S. commented that she loved the slides, flips, and turns. It is wonderful to see kids who are excited about MATH!

Terine and Tauwhare created a podcast book review of Caught in the Sea by Rosemary Keating. The most fascinating part of this review was the style in which the students created the podcast. One student interviewed the other asking questions about the book. I found this interesting because it took the students from the traditional pen and paper book report to allowing them to expound their communication and listening skills. It is even more effective because the students can share the information with other students in the classroom. This podcast came from Room 15 at Pt England School in New Zealand.

This blog also came from the Pt England School in NZ. The student's name was Asena and she had spent a vacation attempting to learn how to surf. This blog assignment seemed to be a writing assignment encouraged by her teacher Mr. Marks. I liked how descriptive she was as she told about her experiences.
