 I wanted to share with you an activity that one of my TRC (Technology Rich Classroom) teachers did with her students. The students are learning about Kansas and reviewing how to identify main idea and details of a story or article. She had the students create Google Search Stories about different aspects of Kansas.

Google Search Stories are videos that are created by putting in search phrases to create your search video. You can have up to 7 searches in your video, you will also be able to add music to your video. It's a very quick way to tell a story or in this case give information about a state.
