Erosion, books, student shelving, Map, digital pics, technology support, Garageband

Went outside with students to help monitor and see where they can locate digital pictures taken by their teacher where erosion was occuring.

I stayed in their classroom to hear about their reponses to the questions. The teacher allowed the students to speak and scaffolded or summarized their thoughts to another thinking level, such as aesthetics.

I asked if the students can help shelve books when they were using their library time to sit at a table and not really doing anything. Students became excited when asked to help. They also might find a good book by shelving.

I was asked to locate a school map.

I went to the school website's About section and found the mapquest link/map helpful--better than Google Earth.

Garageband is being explored as well as copyright infringement as the students are going to be reading a story aloud and then burning it onto a CDRom. They will be then distributing the books to underprivledged children.
