Production #2: Video of My Choice

Suggested tool: Voicethread

I chose to do a story reading of a children's book. The book that I read was Curious George Visits the Library by Margret & H.A. Rey's. I took pictures of each page in the story and used VoiceThread on my iPad to record my voice telling the story.

You can listen to my story telling here. The file is a URL link. 

ANNOTATIONS: 

1) Creators/Authors of the Media Project: Hannah Piron

2) Identified Grade Level: 3rd

3) Subject matter: Does integration of subject matters take place? Yes, the read aloud integrates visual learners because they are able to see the pictures. It integrates audio learners because I am reading aloud the story. It integrates kinesthetic learners because they can turn the pages interactively on the iPad.

What is the subject matter? ELA

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

-For the students to be able to understand the story and how to read

-For the teacher to have a better understanding of how to use VoiceThread

5) Will this media project encourage use of problem solving skills by the learner?

-Yes, the learners will learn how to solve the problem that Curious George faces—having too many books to take out

6) Universal Design For Learning (UDL)/Differentiation: explain how you will provide appropriate differentiation in your design to address learner variability so as to meet the needs of learners with different abilities, backgrounds, and motivations who do not meet the illusive criteria for 'average.'

-I will integrate this lesson by providing students that do not want to use the iPad with the actual Curious George story

-For English Language learners, this will help them with reading and understanding the story 

In what ways do you foresee could this project facilitate kids learning in your classroom?

-This will give the students a better understanding of the use of technology
