Digital Story

Hey ladies! This week we have to make a Digital Story, using MovieMaker. The movie we make has to focus on a concept from our project topic. The movie is supposed to serve as an introduction to a part of the unit. We all need to focus on different concepts, so I though I'd post early on in the week to see what you guys want to do yours on. I'm not sure if I'll be online much this weekend and would like to get a jump start on this assignment. I think I'll do mine on Meteorology, since that's what I did my lesson plan on. If either of you have any problems with that let me know.
Have a great week!!

  1. Sounds good. I am thinking I will do mine on TV Reporting. That's a part of the map we haven't done much with and I think I can make a cool digital story with that topic. :)

  4. By the way, here is my script:

    Meteorology
    Meteorology is the science that deals with weather and the atmosphere. Meteorology is also a way that we can predict what the weather will be. Predicting and measuring the weather is done by meteorologists. Meteorologists are scientists who study and predict the weather. Meteorologists do weather reports on the news, and often inform people of what their weekly weather will be like. Meteorologists are also responsible for following and tracking severe weather like tornadoes or hurricanes. They use very specific equipment to predict the weather. Some of the equipment that they use is Doppler radar and supercomputers. They also use satellites, barometers, thermometers, and very special cameras. A barometer is an instrument that measures air pressure, which is the weight that is pushing down on the earth. A thermometer is an instrument that measures the temperature of the air. Meteorology uses these measurements to help predict weather, so that we can know what it will be like outside.
