I designed this series of lessons to support our students to create an iMovie that showcased their creativity and flair, while also focussing on set camera shots and exploring the tools on offer in iMovie.
Each session (30 minutes) started with explicit teaching of a new skill (or skills) in iMovie, as well as a set camera shot / angle that needed to be used.
Giving a set task for each day reduced the cognitive load of 'what to record' and allowed students to focus on the technique and skills required to complete the task. This was a great step towards handing over more creativity in the design process to our tamariki once they had become familiar with the tools within iMovie.
Great results and loads of personality come through with this task! Now they have a set of skills they can transfer through to evidence their own learning and amplify their voice through sharing their understandings with their whānau and school community.
