Mrs. Dinsmore's Fifth Grade Class
2015-2016
We are a group of twenty-five fifth graders at Tularcitos Elementary School in Carmel Valley, CA. We are hoping that our information will help other people with their explorer research. In order to make this website, there were a lot of steps. First, we chose our explorers. We had two kids working together on each explorer's page. We did research together both using books and online resources. After research, we started writing. It took a while to complete the Google Doc. outline for our explorer. When we felt that we were finished, we had one of the peer editors take a look at what we had written so far and they made suggestions for changes. Then we had to have Mrs. Dinsmore (our teacher) edit.
Mrs. Dinsmore assigned two students to help publish the articles on the website. Siri and Jerry were instrumental in helping other students post their articles and include their pictures and maps. Some students were finished early, so they worked on additional pages like the Explorer Snapshots, Homepage Outline, About the Authors, and Explorer Vocabulary. It took more then a month to get everything finally finished. We are very proud of the end result!
We really do hope that people who read this explorer website will be pleased with the information we are giving.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Dinsmore's Class
