Explanatory Videos (am)

Over the past week, students have been researching and developing an explanatory text on a topic related to Space. Today in language arts, students took their explanatory text and had 45 minutes to do the following:
- download the SonicPics app onto their iPOD
- select a variety of pictures to help complement their explanation
- use SonicPics to develop a narrated explanation
- upload to YouTube

Every student managed to complete this task. Click below to view some of the videos:
