Bettendorf Elementary ELP Showcase

“Bald Eagles”

Thank you very much for coming this evening. Since January the BMS ELP students have been working very hard to prepare for tonight. For the

elementary grades (4th and 5th grade) students had to work with the theme of Bald Eagles. Students have been working on two projects. The first

project is a global project where students connected with nine schools from the Netherlands, Canada, North Carolina, Texas, and Illinois. They have

been studying Liberty and Justice, the eagles from the ALCOA Bald Eagle Camera, to further understand bald eagles. They have been networking

with the students from the other locations online to create a cohesive global project. In addition to the global project, they have been working on a

second project. The second project students have been working on is their independent project where they chose one key aspect to investigate

further.

Tonight each student has prepared a station based on their independent project. The schedule below shows where each student will be stationed.

Please feel free to travel from room to room to see different presentations. Feel free to come and go and ask as many questions as you wish. Let

them shine and impress you with their knowledge. Each elementary student has an interactive component for you to do in order to receive the

correct answer for the Bald Eagle Scavenger Hunt. Can you get all 30 answers before time runs out?

Bettendorf Middle School ELP Showcase

Thank you very much for coming this evening. Since January the BMS ELP students have been working very hard to prepare for

tonight. Each student selected a topic that they are passionate about and had a strong desire to learn more information regarding

the topic. They have done extensive research (some have even conducted some unique experiments) to better understand their

topic. They have even gone out in the community to interview professionals in the field, as well.

Tonight each student has prepared a ten minute seminar to “teach” you about their topic. The schedule below shows where each

student will be presenting and when. Please feel free to travel from room to room to see different presentations. There will be five

minutes between each presentation to allow time to get to a different room. Please, though, do not enter or leave a room during a

student’s presentation. Also, please feel free to ask them questions at the conclusion of their seminar. They have truly become

experts on their topic and would love to share more knowledge with you.
