Digital Learning in Fuller Meadow - December Edition

We packed a lot into a shorter month this December. We started the month off with "Hour of Code". The Hour of Code is an initiative designed to introduce elementary students to the world of computer programming in a fun and accessible way. The Hour of Code aims to equip elementary students with the skills and confidence to navigate an increasingly digital world and consider future pathways in STEM-related fields. Students in Mrs. Thiel's Innovation classes had the opportunity to use the app "Rodo Codo" to engage in coding during Hour of Code." (Source)

Students in Kindergarten classes used the app Chatterpix on "Teddy Bear Day" to bring their friends to life. Chatterpix is an engaging and innovative digital app that can add a delightful twist to any classroom activity.

In Ms. St. Pierre's 2nd-grade classroom, we used the amazing green screen technology by Do Ink to bring our "Stuck in a Snow Globe" writing assignment to life. The students stood in front of the green screen, and with the magic of technology, they appeared inside a snowy wonderland, setting the stage for their creative narratives.
