Trading Cards

I'm actually using the trading cards as a way to present very basic facts about the states. After finishing their research, the students can use google images to find a picture of their state and then they present basic facts that must include something about the history, economics, geography, and government. They have had a great time doing it! I learned that it is best to do the typing in Word and then paste the text into the trading card description area. The students were taking too long to type and we would get "timed out." Some students lost all of their information in the process of logging in again. Things have been going much smoother since we have started using Word to type the facts!
