It’s the end of the year and my students are getting
ready for their showcase. The poems are written and shared on Google drive. The
poems are done and they are now working on performances. The iPads have been
excellent tools for self-assessment. The
students video taped themselves as they worked toward their final
presentations. One of the requirements for the group pieces was that they be
memorized. The students were not happy with that. I wanted them to be able to
see themselves as the audience will. After viewing the videos, they agreed with
me. They were also able to listen for problems with articulation and movement. I
have included a few of their videos here.
The school had
Chromebooks last year, but they weren’t solely for the library. My Chromebooks
have been integrated into my curriculum this year, even more than last because
they weren’t being pulled for things outside of the library. Many of the things
I learned with my students were easily transferred into projects with other
teachers and I anticipate greater things next year.
