I have been thinking about using story bird for some time so this assignment gave me the excuse to look deeper and see which class I can use it with. I am going to start with the poetry assignment and third grade. We have been looking at Australian animals so the directive will be to look at a picture of one of the fictional animals on there and create a poem about it. I like how the poetry part of story bird gives you the words. Having words to select from will help the kids get started. It helped me get started. I also wrote to the Tech person at my school to see if she can just upload a CSV file for me so that I don't have to type in all that information for my 300 plus students. If she can't, I'll have to go to plan B.
Here is what I created as an example to show the kids.

Your creature is adorable! And love the words. Hope you can get the CSV file uploaded. That would be a crazy # of accounts to create! I think the kids will have lots of fun with this one!
