Planned By: Oreta McMillan
Original Author: Oreta McMillan, Vancleave
Students will brainstorm ideas of things that happen during the school day using a circle graph. Students will write a rough draft of a story about an event that happens at school. Pairs of students will use digital cameras to capture these ideas. Using Microsoft Powerpoint students will upload pictures adding text to create a story. Students will share stories with other students in the classroom. As an extension of this activity, students may wish to make a video of the story.
Follow-Up
Students may use video to tell the same story.
