Green Screen for Mother's Day



I tried out DoInk app on the iPad to create greenscreen videos.  We used a cloth green sheet for the background and tacked it up on the wall in a classroom.  I have found that using tacks and taking the green screen to the wall is much easier that using tape or other methods.  The green screen was out of the way and we were able to leave it up for a few days to catch students who were initially absent.  I also use the iRig microphone which is really amazing for quiet students. It really projects their voice and sounds great.




















Students in an autism class worked on poems for their mother's for mother's day.  It was fun to work with the students.  Some felt comfortable and recording went quickly.  Others were camera shy and I we had to limit the camera time and try not to have them redo too many time.  After editing the video in photos. I just cropped the beginning and the end of the clip with the tool in edit mode.  I brought it into the DoInk app.  Here we added some flower scenes behind the students.  Student were able to choose the flower scene and also where they wanted to be standing.

Below are some example videos for the projects.

Formative Assessment Tools

Formative assessment is a process and the articles that fit tools into categories or parts of this process were most helpful to me.  I looked at using Google Forms Quizzes, Socrative, and Kahoot all of which can be used to check for understanding. Google Forms is a great way to assess what your student learned in a lesson.  I use Google Forms quite often but haven't looked at the new self-grading quizzes.  After creating a new quiz, in the settings, you can turn on "Make this a quiz".  Teachers can choose the correct answer in the answer key and assign the points for the the question.  I also really like that you can add feedback for when the question is answered correct and incorrect.  This immediate feedback can help students when they are still interested and have their mind on the  topic.   Google Forms can be used at an exit ticket, mid-lesson check, or within a blended setting where students are working at their own pace on a lesson.

Carnival Infographic poster

Carnival Poster I worked on an infographic poster for a carnival school event. After working in both Piktochart and Canva, I got a feel for both of them.  The two posters are below. I will see which one the Carnival team likes best.  Under the posters are my thoughts on each. https://www.canva.com/design/DABrbQ_P1bQ/view Thoughts on using Canva. I found more free images that I liked.  It doesn't provide an embed code. You can post to facebook or get the link to your work.  Also to download the jpeg or a PDF, you need to pay for any of the images or templates that you used. I tried to use free images and didn't realize that I chose a template that costs $1. This poster will cost $1 which I will pay after I make final changes..Maybe this isn't that costly as a monthly upgrade on Piktochart is more expensive. Canva has tutorials on graphic design.   https://designschool.canva.com/tutorials/ Thoughts on using Piktochart. I like the option to embed and
