Glogging in Grade 1


"I've been exploring effective ways to introduce Grade One students to Glogster, the virtual poster platform. I decided to incorporate it into our social studies curriculum, specifically during our exploration of different communities. Before embarking on our virtual tour across Alberta, we needed to define key terms and help students grasp the concepts of rural and urban communities. To facilitate understanding, we created a Glog on Glogster where students categorized pictures based on whether they belonged in a rural or urban setting. This activity sparked valuable discussions, including the realization that paved roads can exist in both types of communities. Each student then created their own "glog" on poster paper, using pictures to demonstrate their understanding."
Here is our class glog on communities:
