Digital Storytelling
Students were challenged to take a series of photos that told a story or illustrated a concept. They organized their photos and created title pages for their stories, and turned their photos into a slideshow. Enjoy the stories!

Altered Photos!
Sequences or pairs of pictures tell a story. For the start of this photo project we learned the proper use of digital cameras, spoke about copyright laws, and looked at a pair of famous photos. Students learned how to import picture files, manipulate them using photo editing software, and how to save them as a .PDF file (a space saving file used when you have multiple pictures to share and to store on your school network.)

Check out our Newscasts!
We spent a week defining qualities of "great speakers." We listened to a bunch of great speakers and evaluated them using our findings. Then we discussed the difference between print news and TV/Radio news. Students chose printed news articles, summarized the important information, condensed the information to 30 second scripts, recorded their voices and added "newsie" music to the beginning and end. Click on a teacher name to find each student's recording.
