Who Am I?

WHO AM I? See if you can guess the who the famous person is as you view our PowerPoint flash videos on our school website. The 5th grade students researched a famous person using Bio4Kids, Presidential Biographies, American History Biographies, Fact Monster Biographies, or Spectrum Biographies. Then they created a guessing game using PowerPoint. The project has a title page, four pages of facts, and the answer on the sixth page. Our PowerPoint files were converted to flash videos using the FREE I-Spring converter.

Human Body Game Board

YOU FORGOT TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH! MOVE BACK 3 SPACES! My 3rd grade students made game boards to reinforce healthy life skills. If you land on a healthy event, like exercising daily, you will move forward. But beware, landing on unhealthy events like eating too many fatty and sugary snacks could send you back to the beginning.

Our game boards were created in Kidspiration, using a teacher created template. Students chose and added events, images (from the Kidspiration image library), and the colors of their gameboard squares. We printed the finished projects on cardstock and students played using a die and anything they could find for their game pieces.
