IBL Weather Projects



In November we started choosing and researching our IBL projects. We used both books and the internet to research our topic. We had to choose an extreme weather condition. You could choose floods, hurricanes, thunderstorms, tsunamis, droughts, tornadoes, lightning and others.

Ryan chose to do tsunamis and Brody chose to do hurricanes. You could also choose how you wanted to present it. The options we could use were Smore, Prezi, Powerpoint, Comic Life, or Symwriter. Lots of people chose to do Prezi. For our research booklets we had to find information for an Introduction, Devastation, Safety Plan, Sustainability, Fascinating Facts and Wonders.
 
We presented our projects in the computer lab in the beginning of January. It was neat because we set up our project and then left it for others to come and look at. Then we got to go around and look at everyone else’s projects. We had to leave a compliment about their project before we left to watch another one. We also had to take jot notes about each project we viewed.

Brody researched Hurricanes and he did a Prezi. Ryan studied Tsunamis for the IBL project and presented it on Comic Life.  
This was a fun project and we learned a lot! Thanks Mrs. Dent Scarcello for all you help.
