The student becomes the teacher...

The class has begun a study of community helpers.  Instead of me doing all of the teaching, the children have taken on the role of teaching each other.  They have been working in small groups collecting information from books and the internet about their chosen community helper.  Today they began the process of organizing and recording their information so they can present it to the class.  The students are using an app called Explain Everything where they can print, type, draw, use photos and record their facts.
