What Is Instagram?
Instagram is a social media that people use to connect with photos and short videos. Instagram is when people post pictures, videos, and posts. They post things like what the are doing. Instagram's motto is, "Capture Life's Moments" . Our motto is "Capture Educational Moments." We post about our education and what we are doing in our class. Many classes look at what we are doing and get new ideas. We have a class Instagram so it is very safe. Our teacher also has a personal account. We keep them separate so that our audience knows when students are posting and when our teachers is posting.
How Do I Connect?
You can download the app and sign up. We discovered it works best on a mobile device. Then connect with other classes that you may already be connected with through other social media sites like Twitter, KidBlog, and Facebook.
Here's What We Did...
In addition to sharing photos of our learning activities almost every day, we made posts like 6 word memoirs. That is when you use 6 words to tell your story based on a prompt. We also made videos on what we were learning in grammar. When we studied adverbs we made videos that showed different adverbs and then our audience had to guess what the adverb was. We also used Storify to collect all of our writing and create a collaborative story. By using photos and vidoes on Instagram we can share with our global peers what we are doing and learning.
