High Frequency Words- The Movie

This is actually me learning how to use Live Type and sync it with iMovie from Final Cut Pro (with lots of Frank help). I plan to do a full length movie next year.

Little Monkeys Learn The Rules

Everything I know in life, I learned in Kindergarten. Truer words were never spoken. When you know the rules of the game, you are successful. My Kindergarten Class has created a movie about important rules to keep them safe on the playground. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll learn how to play safely on the playground.

Pitch for Newbie Project

Hi Guys,
I don't have a google doc. so I am sending you my pitch via email. Hope that is okay.

Title #1: Eating a Healthy Snack
Synopsis: A student has the choice of a healthy snack or a junk food snack. The student chooses the junk food. Later, in afternoon Kindergarten class, the student is sleepy while trying to do work. Then gets upset stomach, indigestion, nausea and diarreha (like the pepto bismal commercials). Then the film rewinds to the choice of snacks again and this time the student chooses the healthy snack. In school, the students does his/her work, participates and feels and looks great! The End

Title #2: Irregular Verbs/For ELD Students, especially
Synopsis: The student is given a direction by a fellow student or a teacher, "Get the book". The student gets the book and says, "I got the book!"
The student is given a direction by a fellow student or teacher, "Sit on the rug" The student sits down and says, "I sat down!"
The student is given a direction by a fellow student or teacher, "Let's dig a hole". The students dig a hole in the sandbox and say, "We dug it!"...
