I have already used movie maker to assist me in other assignments so playing around with it a second time was enlightening as I was more farmiliar with the tool and understood the concept. I love movie maker because it is simple to use, there is no need to download a program to use it, all the data you need to create your movie is stored on your computer.
I think movie maker is wonderful way to put together a collection of the years photos and play it for the students at the end of the year as a video montage. Students could also use movie maker to assist them in an assessment piece.
Here is a movie of my recent trip to the USA.
Hey Elise,
ReplyDeleteI love your idea of using movie maker to create a video montage. It reminded me of a day at school when all of the students parents came in and were shown a movie that contained video footage and photos of what the students had been doing throughout the year. It was a huge success!

Hi Elise,
ReplyDeleteA montage would be an excellent idea within the classroom to gather and present a story, for example an excursion. I know students in my Year 3 class last year went to Maleny Dairies and they used Microsoft Publisher to produce a poster depicting everything they saw at the dairy. However, moviemaker would have been an excellent alternative.
I'm glad to see that it was used in Ashleigh's classroom and was successful!
Regards,
Elly
