Following their research stations on Famous Americans, the student in Pat Waters 1st Grade Class at Springfield Park created a gift for one of the famous Americans they had studied. The design parameters were that it had to be made from recycled materials found in the CAVE (“Collaborative And Virtual Experiences” lab) and it had to be a gift that the famous American could benefit from. Check out this great example of a thoughtful gift for Abraham Lincoln. Keep in mind that the students did all of the video taping with the iPads on their own so it may be a bit shaky, but the students took complete ownership over this reflection piece of their project.
