PS 233’s Tribute to Black History Month
Student
s in class 5-407 worked on a Black History Month tribute in the form of first-person speeches by notable African Americans. They browsed through a group of websites I posted on the fifth grade wiki to select an individual to research, and then were able to get additional information by using the Google custom search engine linked to the wiki. After completing their research, each student wrote a speech in the first person, to introduce their subject in our PS 233 Tribute to Black History podcast. Several students also wrote brief introductions to head up each of our eight podcast episodes. We also created a CD with all of the episodes, which we hope will be broadcast over the school PA system throughout the month.
I’m really proud of your accomplishment! Way to go kids!
