Writing can be a daunting task for primary students. It can be hard to keep young students engaged in the writing process. Using technology, such as iPads, can help to increase student engagement and motivation.
This learning activity outlines a lesson in which kindergarten students will use an app, called Book Creator, to create procedural books. Students will embed text, videos and photographs to support their writing.
A rubric is used to assess the students’ writing. Rubrics can be valuable tools for evaluating performance tasks. Check out these links to learn more about rubrics.
