In our classroom, we enjoy making movies to extend our learning.  Writing scripts and working together to display our knowledge in a creative way are both benefits of movie-making in the classroom.  We use the movie-making process to help us understand, reinforce, and review new concepts we are learning in different areas of the curriculum.

*Since movie files are large, it may be best to save movie files before watching them.  (Right click on the hyperlink and choose "Save Target As.")  Downloading the entire movie before watching it will prevent the "stuttering" effect that may happen as you watch the movies.

You will need Windows Media Player to view the movies.  Click here to download it.
