3rd Grade Book Trailers

3rd Graders in Ms. Bisoni-Lais, Mrs. Lafferty, and Mrs. Boese's classes completed book trailers using iMovie.  The project began by having the students understand what book trailers were and comparing them to movie trailers.  Students used an iMovie Planning Sheet to help narrow down their theme and list the main ideas.  Next the students worked through the concept of "Story-Boarding" to map out a plan for their book trailer.  Students used iMovie on the iPads to build their movie trailer with text slides as well as taking images from their books.  The students did a great job with the technology integration as well as portraying the storyline of their books while being careful not to give away the ending.  What a fun project!
