In November
we started choosing and researching our IBL projects. We used both books and
the internet to research our topic. We had to choose an extreme weather
condition. You could choose…earthquakes,
floods, thunderstorms, tsunamis, droughts, tornadoes, lightning, tropical
cyclones, and others.
Alyssa
chose to do earthquakes and Jayden chose to do thunderstorms. You could also
choose how you wanted to present it. The options we could use were Smore,
Prezi, Powerpoint, Comic Life, or Symwriter. Lots of people chose to do Smore. For
our research booklets we had to find information for an Introduction,
Devastation, Safety Plan, Sustainability, Fascinating Facts and Wonders.
We
presented our projects in the computer lab in the beginning of January. It was
neat because we set up our project and then left it for others to come and look
at. Then we got to go around and look at everyone else’s projects. We had to
leave a compliment about their project before we left to watch another one. We
also had to take jot notes about each project we viewed.
Alyssa
did a Smore on Earthquakes and Jayden did a Prezi about Thunderstorms.
This
was a fun project and we learned a lot!
