In Library
Club we talked about butterflies. We visited several interesting
websites, read about butterflies, looked at the pictures and
watched movies about butterflies. Children were particularly
interested in butterfly lifecycle.
We also
used this opportunity to talk about different ways of note
taking and discussed the problem of plagiarism.
Children were
free to choose a form and media to create their presentations
about butterflies. Some children decided to create a diagram,
some wrote a story, some preferred to draw while some wanted to
create an audio clip. In their work they used: PowerPoint,
Kidspiration, Dazzle (drawing), Photo Story, Audacity and River
Past.
Coco,
Edward and Jenny wrote a hypertext story called A Butterfly Egg.
