Uses in the Classroom:
Poems Provide Personal Images. Students will design a digital story using a poem from a childhood collection supplied by the teacher. They will read the poem thoroughly and write down images that each line/stanza portrays for them. Students will be asked to bring in or find a collection of their own pictures or images that illustrate their feelings. Students will sequence the images and load them into the "Movie Maker" software. With their microphone headset they will record themselves reading their poem with each line/stanze matching their image chosen.
Issues to Consider:
Technology. Student computers should have "Movie-Maker" loaded onto it and the software works. Each student should have a microphone headset to record their voice or private time with their computer's built-in microphone.
Images. Students need to bring in their own images via hard or downloadable copy. If the images are not their own, students will need to have permission to use it or the copyright information so that the correct artists are being acknowledged.
Copyright:
The example poem is "Believe in Yourself" by Anonymous. Photographs by Chad and Amy Klopf, 2013. Subjects are Ty and Parker Klopf (sons of the photographers) and Kaitlyn Pnacek (family friend).
