Photo Story

This is my photo story. I decided since it had to be based on the content I would teach, that I would use material I recently was able to obtain. I went to Philadelphia over Labor Day weekend. When I returned my students wanted to know all about my trip and what the meaning behind all of it was. Luckily, soon after was Constitution day and I was able to tie it all together. Every grade level builds on the background of our becoming a nation and the independence that we have received thanks to our founding fathers. Therefore, I really enjoyed making this photo story to show my students. I think the history behind it means a lot and that each and every student would be able to carry the information over to broaden their education.

I would definitely use this in my classroom because it has a different take on how the material is presented and would certainly hold a child's attention. Not to mention it would cover ISTE NETS T Standard #2 by being able to use appropriate technology tools.

The only trouble I had with this project was the fact that I could not get a mic to work with my new laptop mini. The mini does not have a disc drive, therefore I wasn't able to download the program off the CD. I am going to have to investigate and see if there is a program on the computer compatible with the mic so I can have it for the future assignments. Since there was no talking, I made sure that I had music with words. I hope you enjoy!
