With all this talk of making movies, I just wanted to remind the list of the
Show Me a Movie Contest for Missouri students.  The 2006 contest is over and
we have 12 winners!!  They will be presented with awards and prizes at the
Midwest Education Technology Conference http://csd.org/metc2007.htm on Feb.
27 from 4-6pm in St. Louis at the Sheraton Westport Chalet Hotel.  The
contest is up and running for 2007, however.  So, keep us in mind when you
are making all these movies--please submit! 

We are currently revising the scoring guide for the contest, so the 2007
contest is not yet up on the web, but you can look at the 2006 contest at:
http://csd.org/showmemovie/index.htm  I hope to see lots of student movies
entered next December!  The movies can be made any time in the calendar year
2007, so anything you make this school year is eligible.

I did a Movie Maker workshop at the MORENet conference in October and have
my handout on my website:
http://www.branson.k12.mo.us/school_links/primary/gonest/MORENet%20conferenc
e.htm

Most of the handout is how to use MM, but the last page has a chart of ideas
for all subject areas.  I haven't personally done all the ideas, but there
are some for most grades.  My 2nd graders have done movies from "how-to"
papers.  They took pictures of each step and narrated by reading their
report.  This year we are working on making movies from our animal research
reports.  They will write the report, find pictures/video to illustrate, and
then discuss a current issue or problem for that animal (endangered species,
spay/neuter, etc.).  The movie will encourage viewers to help their animal
in some way.

Hope this is helpful!

Good morning!
 
Our training session last night covered Multimedia Projects.  I was
wondering what others are doing with Movie Maker in your rooms?  Are you
integrating it into WebQuests or other classroom activities?   What
types of projects are you doing?
 
This is what I have done -
http://www.center.k12.mo.us/edtech/powervocab/index.htm.    This was
a project where a group of kids would choose a process word. 
(Analyze,
infer, predict, etc.)  They define the word in their own terms, solve a
problem that requires them to applying the process word, and finally develop
a script (with transitions, key vocabulary addressed, etc.) explaining what
their word means and the process of applying it in solving a problem.  So
the video shows all this along with their explanation as they are working
through a given problem.  The idea with this is that it reaches beyond the
basic facts and into the processes for working through problems - including
MAP testing.
 
I would love to know what else is being done with Movie Maker in the
classroom! Thanks! Colleen

Hi Kelly!  Below is a page where I compiled websites from last year to help
with MAP preparation and provide resources for teachers.  I checked all the
links, so they should all work.  Let me know if you find any broken ones.

My kids did wonderful movies about the branches of government last year.  We
worked in groups of 3-4.  Each child researched a branch of government or
the constitution.  The kids then came together and wrote a script.  They
used photographs and narrated.  The results were awesome! Janette Henry Mill

We are going into an adoption year for science and I am trying to get some
ideas on texts people like.  It would be for grades k-5 and I am just
looking for a publisher peole think is good for this.  We have harcourt  and
aren't very pleased.

We don't have a text and as far as I know aren't buying one.  We are however
order nonfiction readers that meet the science GLE's.  There are several
reasons for this.  One is we noticed students scored lower in nonfiction
than fiction on the MAP test.  Another reason is that teachers are feeling
so pressed to cover math and communication arts that it is easy to skip
social studies and science. 

I don't know if the whole district is buying these or just my building.  I'm
excited about using them for guided reading, but I'm also looking for
resources for activities to meet  the GLE's for science so we can do
hands-on.  I sent a request about this a couple of weeks ago. 

I just thought I'd share.  I know not everyone has the same options, but I
think buying the little readers and resources is probably less expensive
than many textbook adoptions. Julie

Our district used to provide us with a license for Reading 1-z but no longer
do.  Does anyone have any reading sights that are like reading a-z that they
know about or sights the give you both printable readers and activities that
go with the readers.
