STEP 1: You will need the following materials: Computer iPads Copy of the NLRSD Learning Continuum

STEP 2: Click on the following link to go to your Googe doc: North Heights Google Doc and Crestwood Google Doc. Find your groups section and there you will find your questions.

STEP 3: Read the anchor standard and analyze the change over time of the standard from grades K-5. Add your thoughts on your Google doc.

STEP 4: Note: This particular standard has three things to consider: First, this standard could be as simple as sharing stories orally and visually. For example: A teacher could share a book on a document camera and have discussion around the illustrations.

Secondly, students would need to understand how multimedia elements such as music, pictures, and transitions contribute to developing the meaning, tone, or beauty of a text. You could use the following website to assist you in teaching this concept: [|__http://www.inanimatealice.com/index.html__]

Also, think about how students could create their own visual or multimedia presentations using the following resource:

Once you have explored these resources, discuss with your group if these technologies would assist in teaching this standard. Write your answers in your Google doc.
