Finishing up our Mass. biographies...

We have been working on our biography projects for some time now and the children are close to being finished.  We've researched our topic with multiple sources, collected notes and sorted them (with help from librarian Ms. Szaro).  Then, we crafted a three paragraph essay about our person.  Finally, we have been creating "voicethreads" (www.voicethread.com) about our person (with help from tech. specialist Mrs. Tenhor).  Here are a couple of snapshots from today.  About half the class is finished... and most will be done by the end of the week. Soon, we will watch and comment on each other's projects, then they will be posted here for you to celebrate as well!  What a wonderful project to enjoy that won't be rolled up or thrown out when it gets home!
