Transportation Movie

As a final project in 486, we created a digital movie. I choose the topic of transportation. I have three categories including, things that travel on land, water, or in air. I really enjoy the final product of the movie, and I think the music I choose really enhances it. I believe my preschoolers will enjoy it also, and I can't wait to show them. It will be an awesome introduction to get them thinking about transportation. The software we used to create the movie was my biggest struggle. I had difficulties inserting the music and with the timing of some of my photos. However, I would love to make more movies about various topics possibly with another program. I know preschoolers would enjoy short clips, such as this one, and learn a lot from them.

Creating My Classroom Website

I completed my classroom website recently, and I really enjoy the final product. Even though it was fairly time consuming, I very excited about some of the resources I found for my students, such as a website from Knox County Library that reads stories to you as you view the pictures. Also, I think updating the site will be much easier and less time consuming now that I'm familiar with the tools and site. I hope this is something I'm able to access and utilize often in my classroom, and until then, I believe it is a wonderful marketing to for me. I believe it will show administrators my interests and dedication to student's learning. I really enjoyed this project and believe I will utilize it more than any other thus far.
