Davey Elementary - Grade 4


Mrs. Lenzo's and Mrs. Gray's students from Davey Elementary school in Kent used their time in the AT&T Classroom to study and practice Geometry and Social Studies.  They used iPad apps such as Educreation to research and collect date about geometric shapes and then used this information to create an online lesson describing the characteristic of each shape. These lessons can be viewed from home or school. The students also used PowerPoint to create a presentation, iPod's for math practice, and kidblog to share information with each other and with their teacher.
