Didn't think of that. Also, thank you for all your comments during class which helped me to understand more clearly what was being said. Have a good rest of the summer! Cathy

I got really excited thinking about students creating a similar video to capture velocity in action in their own lives. Your animal friends helped to make the math formula accessible and friendly. I really enjoyed the "story teller" feel as well.

The school I work at was asked to do a 5 minute presentation to the board about how we were using technology. What can you say at a board meeting, in five minutes? Well, a group of students and I created a "Technology Trek" video. One of my students had a great Australian accent, so he acted like the late Crocodile Hunter-looking for technology. In five minutes we SHOWED the board innovation in action. Their eyes were glued to the screen for two reasons: they had no clue what was going on at the classroom level, and they were thrilled to see students involved in the project. As a result, our board is "on board" with innovation!
