Teacher: Ms. Carpenter
Grade 4

 
  Ms. Carpenter’s students created digital stories about various aspects of Mexican history and culture, from the country’s struggle for independence to its food and festivals. Working in small groups, the fourth-graders researched their topics in detail, wrote and recorded scripts, and combined their narratives with images, music, and titles to create finished digital stories.
