Playnormous Entry - November

Contest Entry

For the past few weeks, we've been trying to win a new iMac for the school library. We did a short unit on being healthy, and using the health games from Playnormous.com, we learned more about making good eating choices and adding exercise to each day. Above, you'll see the animoto of our learning experience.

We are really hoping to be the November winner of the Playnormous.com iMac!

SUCCESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

We are SO EXCITED to share the above projects to you using Animoto. We brainstormed things we liked, took pictures of them around campus, and learned a new program - Animoto! We added pictures, music, and the website mixed up the slide show for us. Aren't they AWESOME?!?!

We think they're pretty cool!

Enjoy!

Animoto Frustration Day

We haven't posted here in a month. Wow! Has it been that long?! For the past 3 weeks, we've been working hard on an individual Animoto project like the one you see below. Each PGP student created a brainstorm list of things they like to do. Then, they took turns taking digital pictures of those things all around the school. This process, with only 1 camera, took quite a bit of time, but we finished our photos on Wednesday, and today was supposed to be Animoto Creation day. Each student was going to make their OWN animoto from start to finish. However, that's not exactly what happened.

Several of our older computers didn't seem to have the right program installed with the right settings, even though all computer are set to work the same way! ARGH (as Drew said!) Luckily, Cael and Carson's computers worked beautifully. Miss Lee is going to have a tech person come and fix the other machines so everyone can finish their animoto next week!

It was a day of frustration, but also of learning with lots of "ughs"!

More soon!

Miss Lee, Carson, Cael, Joseph, Ava, Drew, Riley, Wendy, and Claire :)
