Good Spotting!
Writing a Script
On a Google Doc, write a script for yourself to use as your voice recording for your animation. Be sure to follow the instructions listed on our Integrated Learning page.
Be sure to:
1. Introduce the concept of states of matter.
2. Explain how tight or lose the particles are stuck together in the different states (solid, liquid and gas).
3. Explain how different real-life objects move and change in regards to their particles.
Share your script with Mrs. Moala so that you can conference with her prior to recording your voice over.
Spend some time looking over what you have animated.
-Have you included all the essential elements?
-Is there anything you could/should add?
Instructions:
It's that time of the term! Our animations describing States of Matter should be nearly done!
Walt: write a script to narrate an animation.
Free Write
Walt: tell a story in our own way.
Instructions:
This past week, we have all had adventures of our own. Either write a recount describing your favourite part of camp (Year 6s) or write a story that takes place either at camp or Motat (Year 5s).
Be creative!
Think about when your story takes place. Is it at night? Where would you go to sleep? Why?
What would you do if you were there all alone? Or is someone else there with you?
What kind of problem do you encounter?
