Fur Trade Blogs

 

Fur Trade Blogs

 In 6th grade, we have been learning about blogs and blogging. We learned that:

  • Blogs are a more informal way of communicating online
  • Blogs are like a journal with newest entries on the top of the page
  • Blogs are used for many reasons (hobbies, teaching tool, journal...)
  • Blogs are a way to publish online-- some people are even paid to blog!
  • Blogs are a type of digital media and are interactive
  • Blogs are fun and easy to make

Sixth graders have been leaning about the Voyageurs in their Social Studies Class. For their final project, students were asked to journal in the voice of a voyageur.

Students typed their entries up in class, and their teacher and I worked with them to create a blog using blogger.

6th Grade Minnesota Industries

Our 6th Graders have been learning about different industries through distance learning. Their teaacher and I collaborated over ZOOM and a few phone calls to create a mini research project and tech project using SMORE. We created online tutorials for students to take notes, create Smore accounts, get images from The Minnesota Historical Society, and create their Smore. Check out their amazing work:

State Research

 

State Research

In 4th Grade students have been using Pebble Go Next and ELM Resources to complete research on different states during distance learning. Earlier this year, students learned how to use Smore to make an online poster about themselves in preparation for this project. As we are in distance learning, their classroom teachers and I are very happy that we prepped our students at school. Our students worked hard at home to research different states and share their learning using technology skills.

Check out our amazing work!

Students please link your Smore here:
