School: Lancaster High School, Lancaster, NY
Planned By: Amy Balling
Original Author: Amy Balling, Lancaster
Students will be given the opportunity to choose an image from the Exam and turn the picture into a video to describe the concept. They will work in groups of 2 to create a video similar to "Common Craft" videos. They will trace the parts of the picture onto paper, plan out the description, work together to create a short video that will be loaded on to the school district website and onto iTunes so every student can use the information and review for the exam.
