The Lesson
 Students will read the novel Strawberry Girl by Lois

   responding to the book.

 Students learn about the pioneer experience and relate
   it to their own lives.

 Students will use technology to record an interview with
   a family member about when, how and why their family
   moved to Florida.

 Students create a multimedia presentation from their
   interview to present to the class.
KidBlog
   Students will create a blog writing their thoughts on the book.

   Students will be assessed by writing a reaction to the book and respond to fellow
    student’s blog each day.

   This blogsite is especially created for Elementary students and is private.

   Here is an example of a blog entry written by a student:
Teacher Creation

 Teacher’s should assess their knowledge on Power
   Point and other multimedia presentation software
   (imovie)

 Teacher’s also need to research and find safe
   blogging sites (Kidblog)

 Content Knowledge: Book, Strawberry Girl & History
   of Pioneer life in Florida

 Teacher’s should become familiar with different
   recording technologies to provide students choices
   (video, digital cameras, imovie)
What we have
                      learned
   We have learned how to add graphics/sounds to Power Point

   We have learned that there are a variety of elementary blogging sites
    in which to choose from.

   Most importantly, we’ve learned to make special accommodations for
    students with disabilities, ESOL and exceptionalities.
