Halloween🎃Costumes with 3 apps

Here’s how I created the activity.
1.  I edited a pic of each student in PicKids, using the cutting feature-cut a circle around face and placed at the top of the picture.  I also chose a complimentary background. 


2.  Saved, uploaded to each individual student’s Showbie folder in my 🍎PicKid class in our October folder.





3.  Instructed students to save their pic to camera roll, add to new PicKid project,  make the pic background, edit pic by designing costume with doodling tool and by adding stickers.


4.  Then have students touch done and then the 3 dots open in Seesaw and/or back to Showbie so parents can view.  








Emojis in Showbie

Students used the T (text) tool to use emojis for a math story problem.  They were excited and loved choosing their own emojis.  *I had to monitor to ensure no💩 nor other questionable emojis were used.  

Showbie & Spelling Tests

My 1st graders loved independently taking their spelling tests on Showbie.  Here’s what I did:

1. Uploaded spelling pdf
2. Used voice note to record the dictation of the spelling words.
3. Instruct the kids to press play and stop as they needed, while taking the spelling test.

I enjoyed observing.
