Celebrations
Slide
Show
Created by 2K in December 1999
|
As part of our December Social Studies unit, students
learned about how people celebrate special events throughout the
United States and around the World. For the Festival of Lights
Program, second graders learned how people in Sweden celebrate St.
Lucia Day with special songs, foods, dances, stories, and other
special activities. For this KidPix slide show project, students
talked with their families to chose a celebration which was important
to the whole family. Back at school students then completed a
planning web which contained elements of a celebration - foods,
clothing, decorations, people present, and so on. Using their
planning webs, students used pencils, crayons, and colored pencils to
make storyboards with graphics and text to plan their slides. Last,
students used the many tools in KidPix, a children's draw and paint
program, to best illustrate their family celebrations. Below you can
see that all the planning and attention to detail resulted in
wonderfully done KidPix slides of the many ways students' families
celebrate the days which are very special to them.
