Thanks Ben!




Yesterday was a super productive day in our classroom!

In the grade nine class, the Honesty group videotaped their mini movie and uploaded it to their computer.  We also had the Integrity group print their storyboard made using Comic Life and it looks great!  I have been showing it off and received rave reviews from everyone!  Excellent work group!  We are printing more today so I'm excited to see the finished products!

The OLC class is still working hard at creating their podcasts.  We had some students uploading videos to do voice overs and others creating audio-visual podcasts using their voices and images from the internet.  I think they will turn out really well!

Finally, the Media class had the privilege of having another guest speaker.  My brother, Ben, made the trek from Toronto to give a talk about Garageband.  He showed the class how to play your own instruments and record it into Garageband.  He also showed the group how the internet is changing the face of the music industry by providing a medium for artists to display their work.  A big thank you to Ben for giving up his time to visit us!
