Padlet Success

Yesterday we tried something new.  I introduced the students to Padlet.com.  We created a community graphic organizer to keep track of what we are learning about wildfires.  Each student has the opportunity to contribute to the Padlet using their own iPad.  Below is a screen shot of our work so far.  The kids engaged well and enjoyed the new use of the iPad.  They will then use this info to write a paragraph or two about what they have learned about wildfires from multiple sources - news article, National Geographic, and the internet.  Big time Common Core goal for our 5th graders.
