Message from the Staff• The second grade students started this
project with internet research. They located facts and photos of their animal. Each student took notes from the internet. They worked in Language Arts and wrote the facts in sentence form. They then created their slide using a template. All of the students did their own typing, copied and pasted their photo, chose their own background color and learned to animate their slide.
• Congratulations on a job well done! You worked hard and it shows.
