Fifth Grade Academy Awards!

The assignment for the fifth graders was to develop a presentation for science class on an animal of their choice.  They were to include the animal’s habitat, diet, structural adaptations and behavioral adaptations.

These fifth graders took to the task like true professionals!  They worked collaboratively in their groups and they wrote  original screenplays.  They made cue cards and practiced their parts, adding creativity along the way.  They transformed into actors and actresses.

Then after being taught the program iMovie, they became producers, editors, visual effects artists, creative directors, sound designers, and masters of green screen technology!  Look out HOLLYWOOD!  

Special thank you to the fifth grade teachers who collaborated with us on this project: 
Mrs. Quinn, Mrs. Hanson, Mrs. Derosier, and Mrs. Roberts.  

Also, check out the amazing photos taken by Mrs. Bannon! Thank you Roxanne!
