In a previous post I talked about our 5th grade digital leadership team teaching FlipGrid to our 4th graders. Today, the 4th graders got to return the favor. Our 4th grade Book Creator experts sat with our 5th grade digital leadership team and taught them how to use the app to complete their projects.
This collaborative piece was suggested by my 5th grade teaching colleagues, Tara and Becky. Becoming a more student-centered library definitely takes teamwork. I was wondering how the 5th graders would take to being taught by younger students, but both sides did really well.
I just love the fact that we're building our vertical collaboration and cooperation using our student digital leadership teams. Soon, some of these same 4th graders will be receiving training from the 5th graders again so that they can become a "Jr. Digital Leadership Team." So easy for me, so powerful for them.
