Welcome to Project 4! For this project I worked with two other students to create a short film to introduce a new vocabulary word to the class. We chose to use Charlie Chaplin as our inspiration for this project and made a black and white, silent movie. I was very proud of our project. 

The video has been uploaded on Youtube and you can find the link under question 6 of my annotation. 

Also, I have attached the script at the bottom of this page as a Word Document and PDF file, but I suggest watching the clip. 

 

Annotation

1) Creators/Authors of the Media Project (include your group members if it is group work). Victoria Huish, Rebekkah Bailey, Samantha Prindilus

2) Identified Grade Level(s) 5th-6th grade

3) Subject matter: Does integration of subject matters take place? What is (are) the subject matter(s)? English Language Arts, Technology

4) List one or two goals/objectives for this project.

Students will be able to use a video camera to record and edit a short skit to be viewed by the class.

Students will use and include a new vocabulary word as inspiration for their short skit. 

5) In what ways do you foresee could this project facilitate kids learning in your classroom? Will this media project encourage use of problem solving skills by the learner? If so, in what ways?

I could see this project being useful for students to learn new vocabulary. This media project will encourage the use of problem solving skills by the learner because they will need to try different things in imovie to create their project.

6) The link to the product (s) (eg. the URL for VoiceThread or the URL for iMovie on YouTube) if any.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SQKr1hzt5A

7) What kind of file (.docx, .pdf, .wmv, .mp3, .m4v ... ) is the product? What plug-in is needed to view the product and where to download the plug in?

Since the final product is uploaded on YouTube, you will only need access to the internet to view our movie.
