K-2 project:

Animal Homes: To introduce Science standards about animal shelters and H/SS standards about people's homes and shelters or to introduce English Language Arts "Homes" units or themes. The teacher would type the following keywords in the Search field of the database, download appropriate images resulting from the hits, and import images into a PowerPoint presentation. The teacher would then add short captions using vocabulary words and concepts that align to the curriculum or grade level content standards. Teachers could then introduce concepts and vocabulary using the PowerPoint, stopping to discuss images and vocabulary with students. In addition, teachers could narrate the presentation and have it available to students in work centers where they could play the presentation and listen to the narration using headphones.
