Harvest of Love (Week 6 Thing 15)

Okay, this video has been a long time coming. I've been bribing my kids with the video recorder when I had to leave them with a guest teacher to attend this class. They've been waiting and waiting and finally, I gave them a chance to try it out.

I have a leadership group in my class who wanted to help out this year with the Care and Share Harvest of Love food drive. The following video, finally completed after weeks of talking and discussing and filming, was filmed and put together through the efforts of both student and teacher. The film was long enough that I could not upload here, so I broke it into three parts. The first one is here.

What is Care and Share

Challenges: It took a LONG time to get this video together. The students did most of the filming and I realized afterward how many clips we couldn't use because the middle part of a sentence or answer was missing from the video. Also, it is a little jumpy. Also, we recorded using Audible a couple of parts and realized during the assembly performance that the sound file doesn't stay with the video clip it is supposedly linked to if you change other things. Easy to fix once you realize, but sometimes it takes time to realize what the problems might be. I admit, the thought of trying this with a class of students, all at once, even group projects, makes me want to pull my hair out before I've even begun.
