Having Fun with Technology


We are having so much fun trying out new technology in our classroom.  We played around with a new app called "Sock Puppet."  This week we learned about Redwood Trees during our shared reading block.  Today the kids did a written retelling and I called a few students over to try out the  new app.  I hope you enjoy our sock puppet show!



We had to do many takes to get it right.   Thank you to the following students for their participation and patience:  Freddy, Cole, Delaney, Sophia.  

If you are having trouble understanding the puppets, here is  what each person said.

Dog Puppet (Mrs. Selm):  We are learning about Redwood trees.
Freddy:  "They grow in California."
Cole:  "They are one of the biggest living things on Earth"
Delaney:  "Redwood trees grow to be over 300 feet tall!"
Sophia:  "They need warm, wet weather."
