In small groups, students will use a video camera and/or still camera to capture people showing courage. (Examples: on a skateboard doing a trick, standing up to a bully, etc.)
Students will work collaboratively to brainstorm a list of scenarios that demonstrate courage.
From the list, students will choose at least 3 scenarios to capture.
Students will plan each scenario by writing scripts or sketching the photo shoot.
Students will film/shoot each scenario.
Using animoto.com, students will arrange their material and add text and music to create a final project. Students’ final projects will be posted on our class blog for others to view and comment on. |
