Content area(s) Art, Writing, Reading








Purpose To help students develop their story telling abilites, and to encourage them to begin writing and become authors.








Brief description Students will be creating a video story. Students will draw pictures depicting each scene in their story. Students should be encouraged to write on the stories as much as possible. The students stories will then be scanned. using imovie the teacher can make movies of the story moving through the pages. The students can then look at their pages, and then using a voice recording tell their story with each page. Students voices can then me matched with the video,and then the students have created there own short story cartoon/movie.








Resources Art supplies, scanner, voice recorder( microphone) movie making software (imovie)








What is the highest level of Bloom's taxonomy reached? Explain Application: Students will be learning about sequencing their stories and making them understandable to te audience by making sure events happen in the right order. As young students they will learn to write their stories, then apply this sequencing to organizing the story in the right order. This will be reinforced by the students retelling the story as they see the pictures. They will gain an understanding of the sequencing of events, and then apply it to thier stories.








Which learning styles are addressed? How? This lesson will work well with visual learners, auditory learners, and Kinethetic learners. The visual and kinesthetic learners will be most helped by the art aspect, as they draw out their story. Also the video is ideal for them as well. The auditory learners will be reinforced as they are encoureged to look at their story and tell about it out loud. This practice should be reinforced all the while during the actual creation of the story, and not just once during the recording of the child.








Which MIs are addressed? How? The verbal intelligence is addressed as students are encouraged to discuss their story, and as they tell about it outloud for the video. Music intelligence is not really addressed in this activity, but could be added on depending on the available software, students could add background to their music as well. The logical intelligence wil be addressed as the students are encouraged to create and find patterns in their stories, and logically sequence and sort them. Spatial intelligence is encouraged through art, as the students are encouraged to draw their story. Kinesthetic intelligence is addressed through the art as the students use their body movements to create stories.

Purpose

Students will examine the different grains and types of tree bark that exist, then discuss the differences and similarities between them.






Brief description

Using a digital camera, students will take pictures of various samples of bark from the local area. In their notebooks, they will fill in the details of the samples of bark which they have found (photo number, location found, basic description). When they are finished collecting their samples, they will upload their pictures onto the classroom computer. Then, using a paint program such as Photoshop, students will apply filters to the images to produce different contrasts of the pictures. From their observations of the different textures of bark pieces, the students will complete the task by writing a report in their notebooks which details what they have observed of each sample, including their similarities and differences.

Purpose To help build students’ story telling and writing skills

Brief description For younger children, they will draw pictures and scan them into a computer. Once the pictures are in the computer, they will create a Power Point inserting their pictures into the slides and add audio to the pictures they drew. The audio should create a story.
For older age students, they will create a story and then draw pictures or use a camera to take photos to add to their story. Drawings will be scanned in and digital photos uploaded. The students will create a Power Point as well by reading their story they wrote. Students will need to focus on reading expression.
Sound effect as well as music may be added to create or set the mood of the story.

Resources Power point
digital camera
Scanner
Microphone
Garageband
