Fun with the ‘Show Me’ app….


Our tech team showed me how to use the ‘Show Me’ app back in December. I sat there thinking that I would never be able to utilize it because it was too hard for Kindergarteners.
Boy, was I wrong!!

In our Language Arts Reading Street Unit, this week’s book was the well-known story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I got the courage and decided to try this app. I put the students into groups of four. Each group was in charge of retelling a part of the story. This app records what the students draw and say into the microphone. When they are finished they save the project and when every group had completed their retelling, I was able to use the reflector to put their stories on my computer. The class saw Goldilocks and the Three Bears retold by their peers.
What fun we had learning!!

Here are some pictures on their collaboration process:
