Teach 21: Kid’s Book Blog
This project involved students in reading, responding and collaborating about books that they have read in their free time. This Blog has been in existence for 3 years and the group of 5th graders that are highlighted in this video are just learning how to add their original posts to the Blog. In addition to book reviews entered by genre, the Kids Book Blog has author study podcasts, Digital Storytelling Summaries, PowerPoint Games Shows, Online Book Clubs and links for readers.
About Teach 21 – Advancing Network Uses Grant: This project is funded by the state’s K12 High Speed Network (http://k12hsn.org) for the purpose of providing educators across the state with a vision for the meaningful integration of technology into the core curriculum and reinforcing 21st Century Learning Skills. The lesson Wiki includes the objectives, procedures, standards alignment (both state and national), materials, and links to additional resources. The lesson includes this 2-3 minute video clip with teacher interview, student interviews and a snapshot of what the lesson actually “looked like” in the classroom.
