I jotted down a few quick notes on the presentations.
Joy & Nike - they created a welcome book for new staff, students, parents. They put their audio explanations on burgundy circles on each page. Very nice way to draw your attention to the explanation, cool format!
John & Laurianne - I liked their matching activities, along with their activity on creating a family album. We had a similar idea for our book as well...great minds, right guys?? I also loved the Daily Prophet idea, as in Harry Potter. I love being able to connect activities to relevant literature for the children. Well done!
Alecia & Holly - created a book on the journey through primary. They would use their book to create a memoir of their grade primary year. I really liked the table of contents that you made! You both had many creative ideas. In particular, I enjoyed the "Learn to Listen" idea, as I find "listening" is one of the hardest outcomes to assess.
Tracy & Joanne - what a cool idea to create a book on interview skills & etiquette. Resumes & interview skills are so hard to fine tune, and I think that your book is a real practical book that could be useful to a lot of people currently looking for work. Great thinking!
Suzanne & Dave - I liked your innovative ideas, especially using book creator rather than research posters...they really do get boring and are so limited with whom they can be shared with. I feel like the social stories book is also something that could be used very easily in class, and would make going through them with our kids a little more interesting.
Christine & Chelsea - awesome use of different apps and combining them with book creator. Really helps draw in the audience. The autobiography project was really cool. It's something that we do so often in class, but it's nice to have new platforms to present our ideas in a more engaging way.
Terry & Rachel - I really liked how you were able to take book creator & make it usable for post-secondary students. When we think of creativity, we so often think of younger students. I think it's important to continue to foster that creativity as we get older...it keeps a level of humor and fun in life!
Sherri & Michelle - Cool idea on the interactive cook book. Regular cookbooks are so inaccessible, using book creator makes them accessible for all. I like the idea of creating a class book...makes for a fun keepsake from the year!
Nick & Sue - Neat idea for the personal classroom yearbook. I love all the class projects that I did as a student that I got to keep, so I really like the idea of doing more of those in my classroom. Cool idea for making the patterns, as well.
