Using the Chromakey green screen and lighting kit, students in my class will dive into the world of creating storyboards and video production. The digital video tools will allow us to focus on critical skills of the writing process in a way that feels relevant and meaningful. Storytelling in a digital media format is an engaging task. It offers students new and exciting opportunities to share their work for an authentic audience while developing 21st century skills: collaboration, teamwork, problem solving and creativity.
Learning comes to life when students are empowered! In the role of "directors" students will take an active role in the learning process. They will work together to create the plot of the story and develop characters. They'll write dialogue, plot scenes, create props and puppets, rehearse, film and edit their video. Using green screen and computer generated images my students will be able to transport the characters to whatever setting they imagine!
