| Comments |
| I would like to ask for one video flip camera - hd 120 minute capability. |
| Cross-Curriculum Ideas |
| I will be able to use this across the entire curriculum. In language arts we will be able to record our Poetry Jam; in math we can record the steps to long divison; in social studies we could record our vocabulary songs |
| Follow-Up |
| Students watch each other's videos and critique them, looking for errors, and helping each other correct their scripts. This allows for collaboration, affiliation, and affirmation of each students project. |
