Tool #7- A Story for the Ages

I started using a Flip camera in my classroom. It was the best thing ever! The kids loved making and being in movies. I had the kids film themselves and ask each other questions. After the kids would write a book they would then read the book and videotape themselves. I would plug the Flip into the TV and instantly the kids could watch themselves and their classmates reading on TV. At the end of the year, I compiled a short movie to show the parents some of the different activities we did in the classroom and also so they could see how much progress their children had made.
