Movie Maker

Movie Maker was a GREAT and FUN way to create movies. We created a movie using a camera, movie maker, free play music, audacity, PowerPoint, and the Internet. We used Elita's plan on "How do we distinguish letters and sounds?" We had fun using mainly videos and pictures converted from powerpoint to jpeg, but the best part was working with the children, we worked with my niece Makayla. It was a treat to have her over from out of town to work with. The audacity feature was really cool, but we limited ourselves and didn't put any music. The tools that we learned in class and applied to our project was really neat and insightful and will help us as future educators. As teachers we can pass this great technology onto our students. What a great way to get them buzzing with technology.

Again I can't stress how fun this was and this would be a great project for the older kids in elementary. Starfall.com is an awesome website. Please check it out. My niece loved this site.

Elita Perez and I teamed up for this project. Enjoy!
