QR Codes and iMovie



It's a bird...  It's a plane... It a QR Code!  




QR codes are a great way to push out information to parents and students. They can also be used in the classroom to help give easy and fast access to academic websites and curriculum.  You can pretty much link anything to a QR Code. I use QR Reader app to read and create my codes.

QR Codes can help you display the technology projects that your students create.  Parents can simply scan their child's QR code and immediately view any project work that they have created.  Looking for more ideas?  Kathy Shrock's website is a great one to check out.  

iMovie Trailer
I used iMovie in my class this year and had a great response from my students on how easy and fun it was to use.

iMovie Trailer Handouts

The handouts above can be a great way for students to organize their thoughts on what they want to shoot and help them plan.  Helping students organize their thoughts is a great way to ensure a successful video.

All videos need purpose.  Will the video share about them?  Will it begin or end a lesson?  How about a book trailer?  iMovie's are great to reflect on field trips, guest speakers and history reports.
