Today in anticipation of Halloween, we are going to carve pumpkins during computer class using two online web applications. After students have completed their pumpkins, they can enjoy two other interactive Halloween-themed computer activities.
Students will continue to create monsters using Pixie. They will be encouraged to add details to their monsters that they will be able to describe with adjectives. At the end of the class the students will select the monster from the ones they created to use for their written descriptions.
Today the second grade will begin a collaborative project between their computer class, their homeroom classroom, their partner class, and the library called the Monster Adjective Project. They will use PIXIE today, along with their imaginations, to create pictures of an original monster that they can describe with adjectives.
