Classroom Collaboration with Ms. Frain's Spanish Classes
Ms. Frain had lessons prepared to create slides titled in Spanish, where students had to research info and insert images and ultimately cite their sources. Students were taught the relevance of using credible sources for accuracy and current info. Google was off-limits. Students partnered up and created interesting slideshow presentations to share with their classmates.
