Leo the Late Bloomer--Narrowcast
For my narrowcast, I decided to use Jing do a Read Aloud of a book I like to use at the beginning of the year in Kindergarten. It is called Leo the Late Bloomer, and I use it to talk about how everyone works at different paces, and people are good at different things. It starts a good discussion between my students and it's easy for them to remember the story so they like to go back and read it on their own often. I thought it would be neat to make a video of the story being read aloud for students to listen to if they are working on the computer as well! I do not have a scanner available at home, so I took pictures of the pages instead. Once my classroom is clean and I can get in again, I will have more tools to help improve these projects!

Jen,
ReplyDeleteMy son, Pete, will start kindergarten in the fall. He watched your video with me and says, "Thank you for the story on the computer. Thank you so much!" From Pete
I think you could make a lot of these using repetitive text books and they would learn to read very quickly. Andrea
How cool is that....you already have one student who likes it!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the presentation....look forward to learning with you again.
