All in Paragraph writing

April 26, 2025: AI in 4 steps from online text to picture creation

We will use AI in 4 steps:

1) Use an online book (we first take turns reading aloud from the selection) and get ChatGPT to take 3 paragraphs from that book, rewrite them using only 8th grade English vocabulary, and then we will again take turns reading aloud from the updated writing provided by ChatGPT.

2) Use ChatGPT to rewrite these paragraphs as lyrics. The class will then take turns reading aloud from this lyric writing.

3) Use Suno AI to write a song using those lyrics and a voice we choose from the Suno AI menu.

4) Get ChatGPT to use these lyrics to compose a picture or a painting. Students will submit their prompts to alter the picture or painting in the chat, and Mr Ian will add that prompt; this process will continue until we are satisfied with the picture or painting that represents all the work from online text to finished picture!

For our class on March 29, 2025, everyone will put together 2 things:

1) Write a theme sentence of your choice---any sentence.

I have attached a pdf list of 15 words each for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade English vocabulary. I will also attach this list to the HoW thread and to our Chatbox at the beginning of our March 29 class.

2) Use ChatGPT to write your paragraph

Each student will use their current grade level (or above!) English vocabulary list.

Each student will then add their theme sentence to ChatGPT.

Each student will then instruct ChatGPT by writing a prompt.

ChatGPT will follow the prompt to write a paragraph using your list of English vocabulary words to develop the theme sentence.

Each student will then read their paragraph produced by ChatGPT to the rest of the class.
