Class Project - Animoto

The class was so excited when I showed them the animoto about the phases of the moon.  I thought it would be fun for them to produce an animoto about Native Americans since they recently studied the Wampanoag.  The students choose pictures from Google Images related to the different subtopics they studied.  They selected pictures related to their way of living, homes, clothing and food.  Then students annotated the pictures. There was some discussion regarding the background for the Animoto.  They decided on an earth tone background because they had learned the Wampanoag depended on nature for their survival.  Finally, the accompanying music was selected.  Then, we produced our first animoto.  Needless to say, the students were thrilled!
