What Does The Box Say?

is a 2-3 day mini unit using The Day the Crayons Quit as a mentor text. (each lesson approx. 15-30) teaching students to use the free app Chatterpix. Students will make a talking school supply video and save it to their cameral roll. This is a great mini unit to start out the school year.

Students will write a letter from the point of view of a school supply, time themselves with their iPad stopwatch to make sure it is no longer than 30 seconds, then record themselves reading their letter as a talking school supply. The first one they make together will be a Crayon Box. That is where the title What does the Box Say comes from.

Preparation:

1. Download the free app Chatterpix

2. Copy the brainstorming sheet, and blank letter template.

3. Play the video as your class follows along with their iPad.

Note you will also need the book The Day the Crayons Quit to use as a Mentor Text. If you don’t already have this book maybe your school library does. It is an awesome book and well worth purchasing.

Whats Included?:

1. Explicit written teaching instructions with full color photos.

2. A video for each lesson that walks students through everything

they need to do on the iPad.

3. A QR code of each video so that if students need to rewatch it on their own they can do that. (I-nigma app is recommended to scan the QR codes.)

4. Writing Station QR code cards.

(Once students make the first Chatterpix there are plenty of other options that students could do from the point of view of other school supplies. This could be a writing station in your classroom for weeks to come.)

5. Rubrics are also included for both students and teachers to give their scores if you would like to have a grade for the project.
