4th Grade Puppet Interviews
Fourth graders in Ms. Norris’ class at Laburnum Elementary have been working hard creating puppets and scripts for some very cool videos we created today. They had everything ready ahead of time, so when I arrived we got right to work on the movies. Each student recorded his or her own video in iMovie (just click the video camera button on the far left side of the window and press “Capture”). They asked their puppet a series of questions just like an interviewer on a news show. Then their puppet replied! After they had recorded the video, they added text using the T button over on the right side of the window. Finally we exported them as QuickTime videos for posting online. Take a look at some student samples:
1. Sherman interviews Arthur Ashe
2. Dehvon interviews Benjamin Franklin
3. Destiny interviews Rosa Parks
4. Dante interviews Robert E. Lee (and gets attacked by him!)
