The Process

1. Mrs. Hembree, librarian and Mrs. Lustgarten, art experience leaderworked collaboratively on this project.

2. Students created the art with Mrs. Lustgarten. The pages were thenscanned and imported into a powerpoint slide.

3. In Mrs. Hembrees library class, they read about hippos using booksand the database PebbleGo.

4. In groups they wrote a fact about an aspect of the hippo. They thentyped their fact onto a scanned image of their original art in

powerpoint. The students learned to change color and size oftext. They narrated their slide and Mrs. Hembree compiled theslides into both a powerpoint e-Book and pdf style e-Book.

5. Fifth grade students created the Works Consulted slide for the firstgrade students.
