Room 6+6 Kind Kids: We Are Thankful!


This is an Animoto from http://room6kindkids.blogspot.com/ combining photos of a classroom lunch and the things that the children have to be thankful for. I bet they enjoyed making the video as much as the teacher. Kids love to have their photos taken and be "stars". I am now imagining all kinds of uses for Animoto, from teaching vocabulary, to sharing field trips, class events, culminating activities, and more!
I also like the blog overall. I began using kidblog last week with my class in response to the work they have done with Martin Luther King, Jr. and to their overall feelings about the iPads/ technology in the classroom. Of course, some of them are as young as 6, but I am very excited to see what we can do with all of these great sites!

  1. Stephanie,

    Your animoto is fantastic. The students look so happy. It is important for children to realize they are lucky and to be grateful for what they have. There is not enough emphasis placed on this in society. What do you think your next animoto might be about?

  2. Lea- this is not my animoto, it's just one I found online. I have only made one of my own children and one for our social skills of the month.
