Heidi Long, 7th Grade ELA-Expository Essays on Animals 

# data[].attributes.body
I had the kids learn the expository  writing process alongside conducting research on an animal of their choice.  The students got really into it and, once the writing component of the assignment was done, they had a blast creating their own boards through Discovery Ed. They used their animal boards as the visual aid component of their presentations (speaking and listening) . This was great because it provided a summarizing opportunity for the students, and also a mechanism for showing photographs and short video clips of their animal.

See the board below: it is an screen shot of a board created by one of my students.

I created a Discovery Education Board this winter about Yellow Journalism, Propaganda and Fake News. The students need to know the similarities and differences between these concepts, especially in light of the recent attention given this year to fake news. Our country has a history of exaggerated and sensationalist news: from the days of yellow journalism around the time of the Spanish American War, to rampant and influential propaganda of WW1 and WW2, to the "fake news" of today.
