Over the past few weeks, we have noticed unusual objects in the Atlantic City skyline!! At first, we thought they might be UFO's. But, we did some research...which resulted in this preliminary investigative report by my 3rd grade class.

(Please note: The script, video filming, Kar2ouche production, and news reporting was all created by my 3rd grade students. I supervised while small groups did all the work...and I helped with piecing it all together using iMovie. However, soon students will be editing iMovies on their own!)

Stay tuned for additional reports!!

Multimedia Memoirs

Denita's Memoirs

Denita's Multimedia Memoirs Kar2ouche Multimedia Storyboard



Student at MLK are using the Leslie Literacy Collaborative. One of their first writing projects is the creation of a short personal memoir. Teachers are looking for one or two line in each memoir that are potential gems that can be used as seeds from which to grow great writing.

Denita turned her first effort into a Kar2ouche multimedia storyboard. She drew pictures to provide the background, inserted Kar2ouche characters, and recorded her work.
