6th Grade TAPS




TAPS Grade 6

We are currently in our story telling unit in Grade 6. For this unit, students are learning how to use facial expressions, voice, and body language to appropriately tell an engaging children's story.
Sometimes it can be difficult for students to effectively communicate through their posture and body language as well as their words. That is why we have been using our Mac books video functions. Students get the opportunity to see how they would appear to others by filming their attempts. Alongside teacher feedback and guidance, students can now get immediate self-feedback as well.


Two students enthusiastically telling a story while filming.

Students can monitor how they improve as they go, this helps them to strive for success.
