The Erieview Eagle Express
Beginning Friday, November 11th the 4th grade and 3rd grade AR students will begin developing Erieview's first online newspaper, The Erieview Eagle Express. This online newspaper will provide multiple opportunities for students to write in various journalistic styles, research topics that interest them, teach them how to collaborate and synthesize ideas with others, think creatively and critically, collect and analyze data, and work with different kinds of technologies. All of which, are important 21st Century skills every student should possess.
Every month the AR students will publish a new issue and each issue will include:
On a monthly basis, students will be assigned one of the above pieces to complete and will be able to explore different technologies to use to make their work unique. They will have four weeks to complete the assignment and a majority of the work will be completed in class. I am very excited to get the project started and look forward to working with the students in this capacity!
If you have any questions, comments, or areas of expertise, such as journalism or web-design you would like to share, please feel free to contact me!
Thank you so much for your support,
Mrs. Walters
