Lab+Projects

The students from 2nd-5th created a movie about the rules and procedures of the lab using the **__FREE__** program Photostory3. Using the digital camera to capture the action, students acted out the procedures of the lab: Rules of the lab, how to take care of our computers, tornado and fire procedure. Then different students were chosen to add narration to the digital picture. When the movie was finished, everyone watched the final product. After that initial lesson, students from 1st – 5th worked on different topics to create a Photostory 3 movie. First graders created a movie, “First Graders Tell How to Take Care of Computers”. Second and third graders worked on “Computer Ergonomics” using the website http://www.kidshealth.org/. Fourth graders worked on “Troubleshooting – How to fix common problems on our computers”. Fifth graders worked on “Our Internet Use Agreement explained by Kids”. media type="file" key="First Graders Know How to Take Care of our Compters.wmv"media type="file" key="Beginning of the year_3.wmv" On Club Day, the students are creating character ed. movies. For example, the group may have the topic Courage. They had to plan their pictures, plan their narration, take their pictures, and then narrate their picture in the movie. Once the movies are completed at the end of the school year, I'll post their character ed movies.
