Discuss the main events of the story.
Divide the class into small groups and assign each group a part of the story to illustrate on their paper slide.
Each group presents their slide while narrating the part of the story it represents.
Record each group presenting their slide to create a complete story video.
Objective: Students will illustrate and explain a simple science concept using paper slides.
Materials Needed: Paper, markers, recording device.
Steps:
Introduce a simple science concept (e.g., phases of the moon, life cycle of a butterfly).
Have students draw each phase or stage on separate slides.
Students explain what is happening in each slide as they present.
Record the presentations for review and sharing with parents.
Objective: Students will solve a math problem and use paper slides to explain their solution process.
Materials Needed: Paper, pencils, recording device.
Steps:
Present a math problem suitable for the grade level.
Students work in pairs to solve the problem and plan a step-by-step explanation.
Each pair creates paper slides to represent each step of their solution.
Pairs record their explanations using the slides to demonstrate their thinking process.
Objective: Students will create a timeline of a historical event using paper slides.
Materials Needed: Paper, coloring tools, recording device.
Steps:
