Here's a great example of cross-curricular learning! What a cool project! Our 4th and 5th grade teachers used PTO wish list money to purchase a classroom set of Makey Makeys. In social studies, Mrs. Bearden's class learned how to use them to design interactive posters for Black History Month. Before the students could construct their posters, they had to research and write a nonfiction narrative. During science, they learned about electricity and how circuits worked. Once they understood circuits, the class learned how to use the Makey Makeys to construct open and closed circuits. For computer science, they learned how to code in Scratch and record their voices reading their narratives. Finally, they were able to use their knowledge to construct their posters and present them to Mrs. VanGunten's class.
