They were studying magnets so I instructed them to draw a magnetic or a nonmagnetic object in Pixie.  When they finished their drawings I showed them how to export them as .png files and save them to their folders.  Then I sent them to Scribblar and they uploaded their pictures to the site and put them in the correct category: Magnetic or Nonmagnetic.  Some were obvious while other required a bit of discussion, which was great.  For example a child put a picture of a chair in the magnetic box, but some disagreed.  He explained that the metal legs are magnetic even if the plastic seat isn&#8217;t.  Having your students draw the artwork also makes the sorting a bit more personal and motivating than if you had drawn them yourself or used clipart.  I plan on turning this into a drag and drop Flash activity, and I&#8217;ll include the link here when I do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After trying Stixy earlier this week, I decided to go back to Scribblar for a similar classifying lesson in 2nd grade.
