Scenario

Content: Nutrition and Making Healthy Choices
Project: Comparing Good Food Choices vs. Bad Food Choices
4th Grade Class

Preperations:  I would have to take several days aquainting the students with the different equipmen that they would be using; Video Cameras, Tripods, Microphones, and Planning Strategies for the students to use to do each step.  Make a good timeline for completion.

Some of the challenges for this age group will be the use of computer technology and showing all of the students how to use each of the necessary tools in Movie Maker.  I will also as a teacher be struggling with providing ample help for each group of students.  It will also be difficult for each group to complete each step as a class and have all of the students move on in each step that I am teaching together.  Set an appropriate timeline

Students will first need to learn about the content area and know the difference between healthy choices and bad choices in their food selection.  Then I will need to show them how to attain their information and places where the students can shoot their footage.  After this, students will be shown how to properly use all of the equipment used to shoot their raw footage.  Once all of the groups have done this I will help the students import their videos and then teach them how to use the different tools in the Windows Movie Maker.  I will then give the students time to edit their videos and make them the way the students want.  Afterwards, I will show the students the correct way to select appropriate music and import it into their videos.  Finally, I will show the students how to upload their videos into a youtube account and present them to the class.
