Lions, Tigers and Myths, Oh MY! WeVideo & Google Slides

• brainstorm ideas
• have students use this graphic organizer to map out the plot
• write the story
• storyboard it using this Google Doc
• do a peer check before diving into the Slides portion of the project

The students then create their Myth in Slides using some pre-selected pictures (since searching for things like Gods and Goddesses can return some less than desirable results). Slides Pics 1, Slides Pics 2

Here is a very basic sample we use to help students to understand how the project unfolds with first the Slides presentation and then the background music and voice-over within the WeVideo movie. Empathina’s Frozen Waters Slides Presentation, Empathina’s Frozen Waters Final Movie Of course, the student projects are much more well developed and “professional” than our sample!! : )
