First, we brainstormed many different types of vertebrates and invertebrates, including insects and ocean creatures. Then I encouraged students go beyond the first few animals they recalled. I demonstrated how to use the internet to find unique animals that they had never heard of before.  They could ask Google, &#8220;What are the most interesting animals?&#8221; or &#8220;What are the most poisonous animals?&#8221; or &#8220;What animals have superpowers?&#8221; After about five minutes of research, the students chose their animals and jotted down a few facts. They also downloaded one or two photos of their animal. Next, we went to Adobe Spark to start creating our videos.  The students made a title screen and then recorded themselves introducing their animal.  I explained that they need to speak with enthusiasm, like their favorite YouTuber. Then they added the photos and recorded a voiceover to give facts about their animal. Finally we added music, adjusted the volume so it wasn&#8217;t too loud, and published our videos. Students shared their videos with each other on Schoology, and you can see some of them <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/u\/1\/d\/e\/2PACX-1vQkRN8rsHGcXgjDArDLDSCnQMGdKmiGE170rtFmMzCfggJaeCDnAKvGkl2uLjM9O_-UggvA4tXEv8hy\/pub\">here<\/a>.
