Video Lesson Plan

Title: Portfolio Reflection

Introduction: As we are approaching the end of the school year it is time to reflect on the progress that you have made this year. Traditionally, studetns have been asked to write a 5-7 minute speech, which they would them present to the class in front of a panned of judges. This year I am going to add a different option- a video presentation.

Maybe you are hyper-nervous standing in front of a class and speaking to an audience. This is your opportunity. You will still do a presentation, howeve this option will allow you to do it at your home. It will also allow you to do "re-do's".

Instructions: If you choose to do the video presentation or the in class persentation you will need to: 1. gather necesary evidence 2. write out your speech 3. practice If you elect to do the video option you wll need to also: 4. create a story board of video 5. record on video your presentation 6. edit your video 7. compile all recorded video and gathered evidence into a coherent video presentation. All presentations will be viewed during class (both live and recorded)

Assessment: Your presentation will be graded on a standard presentation rubric.

Video Proposal

I would like to create a video of my son's life from before birth to current. I have some footage (not as much as I should for a first child) that I would like to combine with some footage I want to take this week and next. I think that this movie will be a wonderful keepsake for my family, and for our extended family who does not get to see the everyday events of growing up.

In addition to video, I also want to include still shots.

Thanks, I hope this is enough detail. James
