Exhausted

March 1st: 4 Book Trailers Due: including pictures, audio, narration AND a book review due for each book including Lexile levels ... etc

March 5th: (you don't have to read this whole bit)

For this assignment, you will need to create a fiction or non-fiction movie that is engaging to supplement a academic lesson. You will need to buy a webkinz animal at your local store, register, and navigate to WebKinz studio. See the attached tutorial Powerpoint before getting started.
Your movie should use at least 11 of the 15 scenes, have an emotional hook, use the supplied music and be fun to watch.
You will submit to the dropbox a word or rtf document with an explanation of how you will be using this with  students. Also, attach the .wmv movie created using Windows Media Encoder of the movie. Having sound is better, but if you cannot get sound, that is okay. 
This assignment does involve buying a webkinz pet OR borrowing someone's account. Multiple people can share an account, just remember to have your movie saved as a .wmv file using windows media encoder before deleting your story. If you ask around, you may find an elementary school student willing to loan you their account. 
Assessment: Webkinz movie has a plot that supports something you would teach elementary students. File is correctly saved as .wmv, plays in Windows Media Player and is uploaded to the dropbox. 


FOUR DAYS... My professor gave me FOUR DAYS between large assignments! I'm sorry if you read through that... I didn't mean to stress you out too. I'm just sick, and exhausted and now I have to try and figure out this latest insane homework assignment for a class I despise.


PLUS


Abby sick x1 week now
Kiley: sick 2 days
Kara: sick 1 day
MYSELF: SICK SINCE SUNDAY




I'm having a hard week. I feel like crawling into bed, throwing the covers over my head and crying myself to sleep. At least until K or K wake up 


Time to get back to homework....
