Beckwith+Glogster+2011

This was a collaborative project between Ms. Frachetti, teacher-librarian and 3rd-4th grade teachers: Ms. Beckwith, Mrs. Gasamis, Mrs. Markson, and Mrs. O'Grady with assistance from Ms. Miller (Mrs. Gasamis's long-term sub). Students were asked to research a famous person or landmark in Colorado history. Students then wrote an introduction to their person/landmark in the first person and created a podcast using the Blabberize podcasting tool. These were then uploaded to a Glogster (online, interactive poster) along with appropriate photos and/or slideshows, text boxes and a link to a significant event that happened in history during their lifetime or when the landmark site was established. || **Research on Famous Coloradans** ||< ** [Place mouse cursor on the "GLOGSTER" logo, **** then scroll ** //**Colorado's Cannibal**// by Cora G. & Walker R. ||< media type="custom" key="25664884" || // **Colorado's Cannibal** // by Tommy L. & Abe K. ||< media type="custom" key="25664900" || //**Colorado's Outlaw**// by Ben C. ||< media type="custom" key="9441682" || //** Silver Queen of Colorado **// by Nancy Y. and Grace M. ||< media type="custom" key="9500226" || //** Mining Daughter & Society Woman **// by Ava B. and Kendall S. ||< media type="custom" key="9483334" || //** Colorado's Silver Queen **// by Bianca H. ||< media type="custom" key="9442114" || //** A Western Legend **// by Gabe L. and Evan W. ||< media type="custom" key="9500520" || by Ella B. ||< media type="custom" key="9500636" || //**Colorado Educator**// by Lily R and Julia D. ||< media type="custom" key="9442218" || //**Colorado's Quarterback**// by Christopher (CJ) B. ||< media type="custom" key="9501282" || //**From Rags to Riches**// by Raina M. ||< media type="custom" key="9501504" || //**Titanic Survivor**// by Talia K. ||< media type="custom" key="9501932" || by Schuyler G.and Sydney J. ||< media type="custom" key="9502124" || //** Colorado Explorer **// by Adam P. ||< media type="custom" key="9585046" || //** Lost in the Rockies **// by Anna L. ||< media type="custom" key="9502828" || //** Explorer & Adventurer **// by Cooper F. and Noah A. ||< media type="custom" key="9502310" || and //** Carl Hammond **// by Madison and Josh ||< media type="custom" key="9584962" || __**Description of Project:**__ This was a collaborative project between Ms. Frachetti, teacher-librarian and 3rd-4th grade teachers: Ms. Beckwith, Mrs. Gasamis, Mrs. Markson, and Mrs. O'Grady with assistance from Ms. Miller (Mrs. Gasamis's long-term sub).
