Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!

The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.

iMovie and Antoine de Saint-Exúpery

The 6th grade national Spanish students used a teacher made questionnaire to complete a webquest about the life of Antoine de Saint-Exúpery. Once they had all the information that they needed, the students created an iMovie file to which they added graphics, text and audio all related to de Saint-Exúpery's life. When the students finished, they exported their video in a format that could be sent to their teacher's shared folder. This lesson took four class periods to complete.
