Miss Dryton's HS Social Studies Powtoons

Powtoon is a simple and easy to use presentation tool that creates professionally looking presentations very quickly! Students love it because of the cartoon like video features.

Miss Dryton's HS Social Studies classes worked in groups.  The students were assigned a chapter from Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" and were given a set of questions to answer.  They then had to answer those questions and use Powtoon to convey the answers to the class. 

"So in essence the students taught their classmates about the chapter they read and the main ideas through the Powtoon."  said Miss Dryton.   I love the idea of students being teachers and learning from one another!!!
