Dear H,
Hope you are having a good time in S.Africa with your grandma.We miss you. Come back soon. Have a great holiday! We made some more pine cone bird feeders for the birds. They simply love those.

EW'S Retell

SH's Retell

Working together!

This retell is based on the book Fire! Fire! The children created their pics in Kid-Pix and each told me what happened in  a sequence. I typed it out for them. They recorded their voices for their slides and then TM was in-charge of his group putting in the transitions and changing the time. He worked well as a leader and gave everyone a turn for their slide. In the end he saved and exported it to i-Pod format. Great job Blue group for working collaboratively!
