Earth Day PowerPoint Poster Project

(0)
This integrated technology project will absolutely excite your elementary kiddos! 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
