We are going to tell the story of Falling for Rapunzel, and already have captured our claymation for our storyboard. For the content, we used this standard from uen.com for first grade.
Standard 1
Oral Language-Students develop language for the purpose of effectively communicating through listening, speaking, viewing, and presenting.
Objective 2
Develop language through viewing media and presenting.
b. Use a variety of formats (e.g., show and tell, drama, sharing of books and personal writings, choral readings, informational reports, retelling experiences and stories in sequence) in presenting with various forms of media.
The pedagogy that we're using is a fractured fairy tale, "Falling For Rapunzel" by Leah Wilcox. This should be an engaging story for children that know the story of Rapunzel already because they get to look at it in a different way. The story also includes rhyming, another point a class could study within a unit on the story.
We're going to be using PhotoStory and posting our finished product on TeacherTube. This will be great for the students to actually see their work being published for parents and others to see. The technology allows us to use literature further than just reading the book, it engages the children.
Can't wait to finish it!!!!
