Here is the link to my google doc with my storyboard. Sorry the formatting is weird. I couldn't figure out out to move the pictures around.

The goal for this lesson is to help students to learn to introduce themselves in Chinese. The opening scene will have two people meeting each other in Chinese. Then, the video will go through step-by-step to allow students to practice each phrase.

School House Rock - Review

This teachertube video is a really helpful, entertaining method of introducing students to the U.S. legal processes.

This video only shows three minutes of the show, so it should be appropriate, unless this clip is more than 10%.

School House Rock

We Didn't Start the Fire - Review

This teachertube video would be really helpful for introducing students to American history. Music is an easy way to catch students' interest. Teachers could do a K-W-L with the students and have them write down what they know, want to know, and later, what they have learned.

Since this is used for an educational purpose rather than entertainment, it would be okay to use in the classroom setting.

For music videos, the standard restriction is 10% or less than 30 seconds, and this video uses the whole song.

Despite this, playing the whole song for students does not particularly diminish the market value of the piece, so a teacher could probably use it. Teachers should not, however, post the video on the website so that students could repeatedly listen to the song.

Interesting

Recently, the Church has stopped using TV ads to promote the image of Church. This is because the most effective way to reach people is through the Web. They have made great efforts to increase the positive image of the Church. While previously 1 out of 10 google search hits about the church were positive, it is now 6 out of 10.

Interesting, the impact of technology! Especially in spreading the Gospel!

Stargirl Instruction

Here is the link to the Podcast I made. I felt like it would be most meaningful to create a Podcast that had the instructions for my students.
