2013 Independent Study Projects

Students select a topic of interest, a pursuit of passion, to study about for a month. Then they select a career person who would know lots about that topic to dress up like to present their research. Students used Edcanvas, Prezis and Powerpoints to present their topic. They created a presentation board that included a Wordle for their career. Students of all grade levels participated in this independent study project.

Shape Walk

Students in Mrs. Mooney's kindergarten class walked around the school to identify objects in real life to the shape they had in their hand. Great camera shots were taken and uploaded to PhotoStory. The students loved this activity. It was a fun learning experience. K.9B Students recognized shapes in real life objects such as balls, boxes, and cones or models of three dimensional geometric figures.

Kindergarten's Spotlight on Learning

Kindergarten presented to our PTA their Spotlight on Learning. They highlighted their Animal Research. For Kindergarten research (including TEKS K19A & B) in Reading, students asked opened questions about their animal and then developed a plan to answer them using expository text and search engines like Pebble Go. For Writing, students used (TEKS K.20 B) students' pictures and writing to document their research. Students speak clearly and to the point. (TEK S K.22) This was a great experience and the students loved every part of it. Mrs. Mooney and her Wildcat's.
