Ms. Grant’s middle school students at Allapattah Flats K-8 are taking their procedural writing skills to the next level by using the graphic design program called “Canva.” This program allows them to transform their writing into engaging presentations. Students are using this opportunity to teach their peers various tasks such as “how to care for your cat” and “how to make friends.”
The Canva program has a voiceover feature that students are utilizing to record themselves whenever they are using their voice or a communication device. This is a fantastic way for students to practice their communication skills and become more comfortable with technology. Also, by using Canva, the students can express their creativity uniquely.
Overall, this project is providing students with an opportunity to learn and practice important skills in communication, technology, and creativity. Ms. Grant’s students will become more confident and skilled in these areas as they continue to utilize the Canva program in their studies.
