Famous Structures of the World-Thinglinks

Mrs. Abell's 4th grade students have been studying interesting and famous structures of the world as part of their architecture unit.

Picture
After brainstorming all of the structures they knew about, and using books to explore them, each student chose a structure to learn more about and to teach the class.

Picture
Using a research organizer, and the safe search sites on our school Student Resources Page, students researched the buildings of their choice

Picture
Inspired by Sherrie Johnson, a fellow teacher at a neighboring school, Mrs. Abell decided to use Thinglink as the tool for her students to collect and share their findings.

Picture
She set up a class with student accounts and together we did a quick overview of how Thinglinks are built, and they were off and running.

Picture
Many students wanted to include videos into their Thinglink.
After they located them in their safe search engines, and opened them in YouTube, I taught them how to open them in Safeshare.tv and use that link in their Thinglink. This provides a clean interface with no ads, related videos, or comments.


Picture
Students really dove into their research and enjoyed adding links to their Thinglink that captured the essence of each structure.
