Since I teach kindergarten, I needed to use as simple of technology as possible. One activity that we do very frequently is retell familiar stories by using story strips. We put picture cards in the order they occur in the story, then we practice retelling the key events. I thought the students would enjoy recording themselves for this activity.
I chose to use iMovie since our classroom has access to several iPads. I simply recorded video and sound with Photo, then in iMovie I chose the correct clip or clips. I was able to easily trim the clips by sliding a yellow bar in and out. This technology will be appropriate for 5 and 6 year olds.
For my rubric I graded mostly on the content of the project, not the technical skills, with the exception being that every student should get to be the recorder and the speaker.
