Exploring new ways to teach location and access

As a way to get the fifth graders into the different neighborhoods of the library while reviewing the ins and outs of our Destiny catalogue, I created a project that I hope will benefit, not just them, but all the students at Mason-Rice. 

I am reviewing the projects to ensure the groups have met all the criteria. I think these two students did a fine job. One place that I might have them think about is their choice of theme. What do you think?

I'll put up the rest of the projects and the work behind the scenes this weekend.

Behavior Expectations as explained by fifth graders

The students were tasked with creating Google presentations that would communicate our school community expected behaviors. 

You can read about the first part of the project on this post: Fifth Graders Take Charge. The projects are coming to completion and they look incredible. I know I am biased, but I am really pleased with how the students approached this project and impressed with how effectively they communicated their messages. 

There is a specific element in each of these projects that I think the student group did very well -- font, theme, design, layout, word choice, etc. Is there one that you think is particularly effective? Let us know!

Here are just a few of their projects:
