Who or What am I?

A group of gorgeous young writers have been working on some writing to share.

We looked at other author's examples of 'who am I' clues and then tried to write our own. We tried to trick our readers into thinking our who am I was in fact something else.

When we had finished our writing we put our work into keynote which is like powerpoint. We then cut our pictures into pieces to go with our clues. We added transitions to make things zoom in and out of our movie.

When we finished the teachers made them into movies.

They look very good and we are feeling proud of our work.

Movies about St Albans School

Some children from Year 4 worked together to create movies that celebrate our school.

The first job was to take quality photos of life around St Albans to use in the movie.

We then had to choose a way of organising these images. After a lot of discussion it was decided to use; our values, an A-Z, the thinking hats and the past, present and future.

We have entered the movies in an eTime competition. The movie with the most views is the winner. So tell your friends and get watching!
