    I feel this fits in the 'Augmentation' section of the SAMR. It enhances your current Behavioural Management strategies, but does not replace. If I was still in the classroom, I would definitely be using this resource.

      It also seems very exciting that this teacher is supporting learning that is relevant & shows students that learning is not just for the future but opens up opportunities for them now.
    • ruddsword
       
      This also creates a relevance between the student and their world both in the educational sense and the personal sense.
  • Kids brainstormed ideas, wrote rough drafts, edited with classmates and teachers and created their own illustrations. Some handwrote the final draft, while others chose to type up pages.
    • Richard Gerrand
       
      Students and teachers became motivated and engaged in literacy. Students were able to have a choice between typing their stories or writing them by hand. This task was also inclusive in regards to students who might have had learning difficulties. It provided a platform for these students to express themselves creatively through the use of colours, images, written text or a variety of materials such as button, beads, different fabrics that they could cut out and paste, etc.
    • emmajay
       
      Collaboration between students and teachers promotes positive learning experiences and ensures all learners are involved and able to participate. Providing students with options to create illustrations, type or write their story by hand enables all students to construct their story in a way that suits them.

      Having an open minded and innovative staff helps, so does having the opportunity to try something different. Not all schools would have been so on board with the idea.

      I love how this seems to have involved the families too. I feel parents are becoming increasing less involved in the classroo, for various reasons, so it's fantastic that this has sparked their enthusiasm as well as the student's.

      Hopefully those students with a passion for writing in the "younger" grades were given the opportunity to create their own book if they wanted to.
  • It also got the school buzzing
    • Amber Nottage
       
      Having the whole school talking about something as positive and exciting as literacy is a great reason to do something like this! It shows how excited the students are about creating their own work - love it.

    • corinnawest
       
      great idea to get the students to feel good about learning and they get to take something away from it that they can be proud off. Great concept and great on the school part to adjust their teaching and assessments

      This provocation from the students allowed the teacher to use the interests of the children to make learning more engaging and meaningful.

      The dog wagging the tail - the teacher didn't just use ICT based literacy programs because the existed. She searched for one that met the needs and goals of her students. Even better then she shared with her colleagues.

      This reminds me of a student with ASD at a school I am aware of that wrote his own book about the struggles of making friends. It was an amazing experience for this boy, his twin sister illustrated it for him and his best friend assisted. He performed readings of the book for all the classrooms. Such an amazing experience for the child and the school.

  • kids would get off the bus carrying their package of materials and talking about it
    • Suzanne Usher
       
      Another awesome result of this activity is that it makes literacy possible and enjoyable for all  students. Not all students enjoy or succeed in reading, but show far more engagement with writing, especially when given freedom of expression, and encouraged to write about something relevant and enjoyable to them.

    Reasons as to why I thought this was a good idea: - students and parents are involved - everyone in the class, all learning abilities, got involved - it gave writing a sense of purpose for the class - students could relate it to interests and real life concepts. - students took charge of what they are going to write
