My Students

I am tasked with the pleasure of teaching second grade students all subject areas. These students are curious, intelligent, and creative beyond all measures. They attend a Visual and Performing Arts Magnet in Los Angeles. Being that our school is an Art Magnet one of their favorite things to do is art, so I try to integrate it into as many subject areas as possible. The students come from various backgrounds and we are limited in the resources available to us.

My Project

Our class is planning to make movies to show and solidify our understanding about some exciting science topics we will be learning about this year. We have iPads loaded up with iMovie but only have one charger to share between all five iPads. If we had a charging station, we would be able to keep all 5 iPads up and running which would make this project more feasible. It will also be helpful for us to see a few educational science videos to help us get ideas. The three dvd, "Rockin' Science", "Human Body" and "Life Science" specifically cover our most of out science standards and will show the students what an informative movie looks like. After we see these videos we will be planning and working on our own movies. After the movies are made we need somewhere to save them. These files are really large and a hard drive will allow us to save our work in order to show them to other classes and spread our love of learning across the campus. I am really for our students to create their own educational videos and will save them in the hard drive to teach content to future students. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
