Mrs.+Churness+-+Squirrel+Research

==Second grade students completed an author study of Wisconsin author/illustrator Lois Ehlert. Students learned that Ehlert grew up in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, and currently lives in Milwaukee. She does a lot of research for her books -- often including nonfiction information about her book subjects. Her art form is collage.==

==To try their hand at their own research, students listened to the book Nuts to You by Lois Ehlert. Then, they used PebbleGo.com to research squirrels. Students chose one fact they learned to share with their classmates using the ChatterPix app on their iPads. Mrs. McMahon uploaded each video to iMovie to create one longer video to share.==
