Each student created their own survey and collected data in math class. They came to computer class and created a "visual representation" of their data using Pixie. They typed their name and survey question. They used stickers to create a visual representation of their data. They used stamps to show the math equation for their data. Here is an example:
Last week in computer class, students made snowflakes. They also wrote snowflake poems in class. This week they will be using Pixie to finish their Snowflake Poems in class. They will be changing the way the "text" looks by changing the font, font color, font style, and font size. Below is an example of what they will be starting with:
In celebration of winter, the students are going to design their own snowflakes using a free online tool. This is reminiscent of cutting out snowflakes from folded paper. This activity works on the students fine motor and mouse skills. It is always one of the students favorite computer activities! They will write a snowflake poem in the classroom to accompany their snowflakes.
