Most of the children were very excited to know they could get the lyrics for most songs and then download them in print. We talked about the importance of using Google and YouTube only with adult supervision.
Then, we used the computer to map where the children lived in relation to ASFG and in relation to the rest of the world, and finally, the students used the SMART board to draw realistic houses.
The students were presented with a wide assortment of previously downloaded landscape photos. Each student selected his/her favorite and pasted the drawing on it. Our students then dictated a story based on this work to their teacher. They gave each story a title and chose their favorite part of story event to write a sentence.
“Once upon a time, my dad and me were in a helicopter looking at the whole world. We saw our tower where my dad lived with me. I went to his office, to where he works. I did a little of his job. He had a meeting. I ate a little bit of his chocolate. Then I was hungry again, and ate another one of his chocolates. Then I ate dinner at my house.”
