Learning in 360: Supporting Social Emotional Learning with Streaming
Learning is:
Visit Miss Matthews 5th grade class in Stockton, California. Her school, John R Williams Elementary, invited the Discovery Education Community to share their experience with a Board Builder Challenge tapping into various resources from Streaming Plus. Several classes from grades 4 through 6 participated.
The Big Idea
Through Content Collections, students explored and discussed obstacles to kindness, friendship and community. Students learned from one historical figure, Martin Luther King, and were given the opportunity to research other historical figures from whom lessons of empathy and tolerance could be learned. Students then collected quotes, videos, and images to personalize meaning for themselves, their school, and local community. They displayed their learning through Board Builder and shared with their peers. Exemplars of this student work can be found through the links below:
- Olmstead’s class – Our John R. Williams Community
- Howard’s class – Board Builder Challenge
- Vanni’s class – Community at John R. Williams
- Miss Matthews class – Community at JRW
- Yarbrough’s class – Community Board Builder
