Everyone check out my wiki below. It is called Weather in 201. This wiki was created for my 1st graders as a way to collaboratively describe the weather conditions in the different seasons. Students and their parents can describe the weather by posting pictures, videos, typing out words, or even uploading Voicethreads created at school. ==Ashley- I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this lesson. With your permission, I would love to use this with my first grade class. The virtual field trip through the landmarks of the Lewis and Clark Expedition using Weebly is an excellent idea. I never heard of Pebble Go. I looked at it and thought it was an excellent resource and something I can use in my classroom. Thanks for that tip. I am sure the students loved getting a Letter from Thomas Jefferson. I liked how you gave them choices on a Voice Thread or Wiki post for the one thing they would bring on their journey. The writing exercise was a great idea as well. Great job Ashley! This is a wonderful lesson plan! -Aimee Mancil== == http://weatherin201.wikispaces.com/

Hi Ashley, I loved your lesson plan about Lewis and Clark Expedition. I have always loved looking at your site because I can enrich my kindergarten students with the things that you are using in first grade. Using the Weebly was a great idea. As we use more and more technology throughout the grade, I feel that our students will be better prepared for these kinds of activities. I like the way you incorporated the letter from Thomas Jefferson. You really made the assignment meaningful and worthwhile for them. Including Brain Pop Jr. was also an added benefit especially since you all have the Spanish version also. I can see where time could become an issue. I had the same problem. Great job on your lesson plan!Thanks for sharing! Toni Odom
