Using some Google tools and a Chromebook, students can make digital books trailers that can go way beyond a simple book report. Students are open to be more creative, can express emotion, and are free from the fear of presenting in front of the class. For this activity you will need Google Slides, YouTube, and an extension called Screencastify. When you add all of these together you get a very special book trailer. See below for a walkthrough video link to Screencastify and some student examples.
