E-Pal, Map, Movie Ideas

Okay everyone, we need to figure out what type of assignment we would do with our class to demonstrate cultural understanding and global awareness.  Maybe we could do something like having the kids write to other students in a different region of the U.S. and they can talk about and describe the weather in their area.  It's not super creative, but an idea.  We then have to figure out how to incorporate a map into the assignment.  We also need to discuss who is doing what concept for the digital movie.  We can stick with what we did our lesson plans on if you'd like.  I already have started a movie up for types of weather.  We need to make sure that we are cover all concepts on the map as well!

  1. I think we were thinking of the same idea at the same time.

  2. Writing to people from other states its what I agree with. For the Digital story I was thinking of using the same concept as the lesson plan i wrote up which is the four seasons. And also who wants to set up the google document. So we can evenly disperse this work.

  3. I like the idea of writing to people from other states. I think that it is a great way for students to gain perspectives on what the weather in other states is like through the voice of another student their same age. For the digital story I was going to do the same topic I did for the lesson plan, which is weather monitoring tools.
