Brianna, you gave me such ideas. Because I am new to technology and animoto, my creativity is covered with an overwhelming feeling about how to use these amazing technology ideas in my classroom, but what a great way to teach robust vocabulary! I teach vocabulary every week, and I have been trying to think of different methods for teaching it so that my students hold on to the words and their definitions. Now that I am familiar with animoto, I feel that using an animoto to teach the new vocabulary would be such a great way to get the students to visually understand what the words mean! I have such visual learners that, I have been using flip books during centers to have the students create their own pictures for each vocab word and a sentence to go along with each. They have seemed to really enjoy this center, but this animoto idea is another great way to help them! Thanks!
Hi Brianna, I am taking this same class but off campus and I saw your animoto and fell in love with it. It is a great idea and I cannot wait to try it out in my classroom!
I really liked the up beat music that was used. It was great use of this technology. Your pictures went great with your words and definitions. However, I believe you have a typo on your definition of rattle. You put "knowcking" and I believe you meant knocking. I really like how you used this technology and think it would be a great way for students to review on their own as and extra way to reinforce it.
Hmm well that's what I get for doing grad work at midnight...I can always say I am testing the kids to see if they are paying attention...who can find my mistake..
