This project is based around the Communication Core Competency. The first step is to find out where my students are right now with their Communication Competencies. I have found a self-evaluation from SD61. I gave my class it as an assignment on Google Classroom. They were required to make their own copy of the Google Slide. They then used Chromebooks to move sentences onto the scale. The sentence are taken directly from the Core Competency Document. This was a good place to start however the language is not ideal for grade 6. I think that in the future I would like to rewrite the sentences using student friendly language. Another small problem was many students fingers became fatigued with all the sentences they had to move without using a mouse. Maybe I will need to cut the amount of sentences back next time to prevent that. |

My grade 6 class will be participating in a SetBC technology project with a focus on the communication core competency in math. SetBC has given the class 5 chromebooks and 5 ipads to use. In addition, each student will have access to the software of Explain Everything and Equatio. The aim is to use this technology to create "Math Journal Videos" to increasing my students ability to communicate their math knowledge and understanding, This blog will be used to document our adventure with the technology.
