One of my past students put this quick video clip together but ran out of creative ideas to finish it off as a movie. Your help is required to pull it together! Watch the animated clip several times. Come up with an idea to finish it off in a way that suits your learning style and interests. This will help preserve the clip in a meaningful way and will also allow your new classmates to get to know you better
For example, if you are a musician you might wish to compose and play a piece of music that suits the animation. If you are a poet, you might choose to write and present a piece of poetry which adds to the action in the clip. If you are an actor, you could narrate a story that connects with the clip in some way. If your interests are in science you might choose to prepare a scientific journal entry about your new discovery. There is no right or wrong way of approaching this task. Come up with an idea and go with it!
Basically, you are being asked to put together something that interests you that somehow relates to the video clip. This exercise might take you 30 minutes or 3 hours. It will depend on your idea and your commitment to this introductory activity. You will be asked to share your ideas on Friday morning.
Sounds like the wheels are turning in a lot of your brains. Here is a sample:
I was wondering if i could add onto that video like the monster goes down a path munching up trees then a squirrel comes out etc.

Hey! I miss this blog..... Who was the one that made this video, was it you Chuck? Too bad I'm not in this class though but I am still going to look at all the new things on this blog because I love it!!
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs.Henderson!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a great project!Will we be discussing it further in class?,as I am a little unclear about a couple of things.
I can't wait to be with you again this year,but as a grade six this time.I think this is brilliant,so if this is only our first projects I can imagine that others will meet and exceed its expectations!

I am a writer,but I think a 'Me' poem would be cheesy.
ReplyDeleteAny ideas?
Katie(again)
Hey, we're back in business!! Great to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteHmmm... a 'Me' poem doesn't have to be cheesy, especially if YOU are the poet because you are definitely NOT cheddar, as in cheesy!

Hello Mrs.Henderson! I've missed the blog over the summer and I'm so excited that it has started back up again!My parents found out I was in your class and i was really excited to have you again. For the breaking the ice challenge I wrote a Dr.Seuss style poem from the beasts point of view and I really had a blast creating it! It's one of my bests cause I had to make it rhyme but it's still great! I hope you enjoy it when I present it!
