Here is our Slideshow...Finally!

This free slideshow design customized with Smilebox

 The kids really loved this activity! They did everything but upload the Word Clouds into Smilebox. This was an interactive and different way to study grammar/parts of speech.

ABCya and Smilebox

Whew! Today the kids worked on a culminating activity for our PARTS OF SPEECH unit of study. This is what it entails:

• each student adds 10-15 words about one topic (eg nouns, adjectives, adverbs, verbs...)
• on their sheet, kids must have descriptive words and synonyms
• after double checking spelling and neatness, kids showed me their sheets
• if everything looks good, next step

Tomorrow, kids will type their list into ABCya's Word Cloud program (free and easy form of WORDLE). I will download their Word Clouds onto my flashdrive and make a PARTS OF SPEECH slideshow in Smilebox. 

I will post the slideshow when it is finished.

So, so, so, excited!!!

I borrowed this idea from "Techie Teacher"'s blog; what a wonderfully fun idea.
