2nd Graders Learned about Africa through Research!

 African Countries Slide Show created by Mrs. Eckert's Second Grade ClassPlease click the map of Africa to see the slide show!
                   
Second grade students paired up and chose African countries to research.  Then, they accessed the CultureGrams database through the Forest Road Library Website.  

They leaned how to navigate the database and found the information they needed such as government, food, currency, religion, population, etc. of their chosen countries. They took notes on graphic organizers.  Then, each pair learned how to create a Google Slide, inserting a background, pictures and some important information about the country.

                                  So proud of their first Google Slides!
