My second grade students were learning about simple machines in their classrooms. For this month's tech project, students researched their favorite simple machine. They read about their simple machine on Pebble Go; watched movies about simple machines on BrainPOP; and then wrote about their simple machine in Wixie. They incorporated important nonfiction text features in their writing including table of contents, headings, pictures with captions, labeled drawings and glossaries. The students loved creating and sharing their books. Wixie made it easy for students to write, spell check, format, and share their books. Students loved adding transitions and music to their final products.
Enjoy a few of their books:
