Project: The students were given the task to write a narrative story. Grade 3/4’s theme was adventure and the grade 5/6’s theme was mystery. We had covered the two writing traits - Ideas and Organization and therefore that was our focus for this writing task. Students took their stories through the writing process and included a hand drawn cover page for their published story. Hollywood then called and was looking to turn their stories into a big screen production. We kicked this excitement off with a PowerPoint presentation sharing the details of their assignment. Students used the iMovie app to create movie trailers
promoting their stories. We hosted a red carpet event – Kenaston Golden Globes where we viewed all of the movie trailers and a variety of awards were handed out. The day was full of excitement with everyone dressed up in their formal wear. Popcorn and drinks were served during the movie premier. Everyone was pleased to receive a Golden Globe Award.
