We learned about simple machines in Science. After we learned about what simple machines are and what they do, we drew our own illustrations to show what we learned.
Here are some examples...
Our class blog
The website we used was http://www.tuxpaint.org/.
The students did well and it was so great to see all levels of learners be so successful explaining their thinking using pictures. This program kept students so much more engaged than just writing. The only negative side was the sound. It is very noisy and distracted many students. I would turn the sound down or off before students begin if I use this again. I would recommend this site for teaching math vocabulary, science and social studies concepts or even creating illustrations for stories.
