Creating a Kid Pix Slideshow

We have had a lot of difficulty sharing the Kid Pix slideshows we have created as exporting to Quicktime movies hasn't worked for us! Instead Ms F imported our Kid Pix pictures into Photostory and then recorded the audio.
What do you think about our work? Please give us some feedback about what we were learning to do -
WALT: Draw a picture of native NZ flora in Kid Pix and record some information that we learned during our trip to Tahuna Torea or from non-fiction books.
WILF: Correct shape of the leaves and flowers. Correct colours of leaves and flowers. Clear, nicely paced speaking to share correct facts about the flora.

Tahuna Torea Trip


On Monday the children from Year 0/1 and 2 and their teachers went to Tahuna Torea for a bush walk. They saw lots of native fauna and flora and came back knowing much more about birds and trees especially.

We create a word bank of everything we saw at http://www.wordle.net/:


Ms F worked with some Pod 1 and 2 children to draw leaves and flowers from some of the native trees. Some work is still being finished because the children are finding out some information about the tree they chose to draw and then they will make up a class slideshow in Kid Pix to share their learning with others. Here are some of our drawings. Can you identify the native flora - Titoki, Kawakawa, Pohutukawa and Silver fern?
