From
learning the parts of the computer in kindergarten to research in third, fourth,
and fifth grade, to learning how to use different fonts, color, font size and a
dash of creativity the computer lab at Moody Elementary School is rocking.
Students
talked about Internet safety, do's and don'ts of computer rules school
wide. Each student was given a baggie of sticky notes and asked to label
the various external components do the computer. This interactive activity was
cause for a few stray sticky notes and a couple labeling of friends but in the
ending the message prevailed and learning actually took place.
Thanks
to Mrs. Tevepaugh a great research lesson on bats flew in just in time for
Halloween. Children in our upper el classes labeled the parts of a bat,
described where they live, researched and listed what they ate, and did
a contrast and compare Venn diagram between birds and bats. It was a howling
good time finding the good, the bad, and the ugly pictures and facts about our
winged mammal friends.
The
hall outside the lab is adorned with a fall tree with colorful leaves created
by students using their names to add a colorful visual flair. Impressing even
themselves students designed the leaves of a tree. From a two-inch design to nine-inch
project each piece came together to create a masterpiece.
