Colonial Life Projects

Featured Blogger: Ally
In social studies, we have been using Book Creator, an app on the iPad. We have been using it for our colonial life project. There are 7 groups, the first one is school, the second one is religion, the third one is work, the fourth one was food, the fifth one is families and homes, six clothes, and last of all, important places. My group worked on colonial clothes.  We went onto Safari, downloaded a few pictures, and then we pasted it onto the pages of our book.  We had to have 3 text features, and we chose glossary, diagram and labels.  These helped the readers understand more about our book.  We all worked together to type in all the words and facts.  Soon we will be experts on colonial life!
