And I also created a slide show of my beloved Venezuela:
I can use the Big Huge Labs USA map to teach the states. The students can click on the state and the map will highlight to display its location.
The slide show can be used to teach objectives in Science and Social Studies. For example we could show important events, life cycles, even the ABC's creating a fun animation to keep the kids interested while learning.
Your suggestions are great! I love the slideshow (I spent over 2 weeks in Venezuela as a high school graduation gift). You can also have them make word pictures of the country's products, landforms, or famous people. You can make the trading card as a mini report of a country or group activity. You are really getting the 'hang' of blogging!
ReplyDeleteHi Savcic, I liked your idea to use Big Huge Labs to represent and teach USA states, so the students can have access and explore the information needed to learn about important details of each state, great!!
