Use this 8.5" x 11" PowerPoint Poster Making resource as a culmination to your own Earth Day or Save the Earth unit.
I use the Super 3 format. Students use the reproducible to PLAN their poster before even touching the computer. This way you can approve their work before the computer fun begins. Then they make (DO) the poster. Finally, after they print it, they REVIEW what they liked about their poster and what they would do differently next time.
I've done this project successfully with 1st grade students just beginning to learn basic computer skills. Step by step teacher directions are provided so you can break the project into simple tasks for the students.
This packet includes:
* Earth Day Poster Planning Sheet reproducible
* Word Bank with prepopulated words
* Blank Word Bank for your students to brainstorm words
* 3 Sample Posters
* Essential Question
* I Can statements
* Teacher Directions
Need Ninja Cleaners in your classroom? I sure did!
I made this Ninja Job Chart to cover the cleaning jobs I wanted students to do in the Media Center. I made it large so we could see it from different areas of the room.
Print the pages. Cut apart if you like. I cut them and pasted them lengthwise on a blue posterboard folded in half which gave it strength. It looks great! Laminate for more durability.
Each group of students has a colored clothespin that moves each week or month (your choice!) so they are never stuck doing the same jobs. I set the timer for 1-2 minutes and set them loose. With 4-5 students doing each task, the room is spic and span in no time at all!
The jobs part of this PowerPoint file is editable so you can change it to meet your needs no matter what class you teach. Then, just print and tape together.
I've also included PDF's of both files for your convenience.
Includes:
3 noneditable covers
1 page of ninja stars you can copy and paste on posters
1 page of group color bars to print and paste on clothespins
5 editable job pages, copy and paste to make even more
*Note: I used the Narkisim Font which is a free download if you do not have it.
