Thanks to Jo McLeay’s twitter for this one. (You can find her blog here.)
A Yr 7 class in Huguenot used iMovie to create book trailers. What’s a book trailer, I hear you ask?
Well, have a look and listen here. It’s probably worthwhile having a look at the assessment rubric first to understand what was required and thus to appreciate what the students have produced.
A link to the rubric can be found on the same page as the trailers, but here is a small screenshot just in case you don’t have Excel.
I would love to see our Yr 6 and 7 students doing some of these and while it would be easier on an iMac using iMovie, PhotoStory or Windows MovieMaker could both do it.
There might even be some Web2 tool (site) that can help to create something similar.
