Ms. Cauble’s second grade class at Negley Elementary participated in a “Where the Wild Things Are” video conference along with several other 2nd grades classes from other schools in our district.  The students were to come up with some sort of extension to the original story.  This process began a couple of weeks ago.  The class first read the story, discussed what it meant to them, did some map activities, and proceeded to create an extension of the story for this project.  Ms. Cauble’s class came up with an extension and created a readers theater.  The students created masks in their Art class, wrote their own story, acted out the story, and asked questions all about Max during the video conference.  The students did a great job.  Once the story was created, the class had to post the story on the blog. Negley’s Instructional Technologist, Meredith O’Bannion, assisted with the blog and the video conference.
