Students used the StopMotion app on the iPads to create their own 'About Me' videos the first week of school. By taking pictures with minor movements in each photo, the app pieced together all the photos into a moving video replicating the old 'flip book' and motion picture methods. Students used their creativity to tell about themselves instead of the traditional 'About Me' group share that usually happens the first week. The shy students still were able to share without being forced into the uncomfortable position of talking in front of peers they may not have known yet. It was fun to see their creativity and learn so much about them in the first week, like how they work, problem solve, create, and time manage...and something unique about them that they enjoy.

I can't decide which period is my favorite. Please share with your students what a gard critic you have found me to be and what a compliment that is to their work.

What a great job everyone did on these videos. I didn't even know there was an app called StopMotion. Lots of fun to watch and a great way to let each other know what everyone enjoys. Good job everyone!

I'm so impressed with the creativity and thought that has gone into these projects. Your students needs to be very proud of what they have created, both in the poem section and the videos. I love the kind of learning these young people are getting here at BR. Great job!
