Historical Disaster Research with Animation
by Mrs. Adamson's Class

      My fourth and fifth grade class has been researching historical disasters around the world.  We have created special writing, reading, and technology projects.  This project based learning activity allowed the students to learn subject content while creating a  product working in collaborative groups.  

By clicking on the disaster project to the left, you will be able to:  
--read about the disasters that we researched 
--listen to us read our stories (this may take a few seconds to download but is well worth the wait!)
--look at the animated pictures we have created about the disasters
