RePower America

I came across a great site today called RePower America. They are advocates for clean energy in the United States. They have a really neat wall where you can add your voice in support of clean energy. Check out their page here: http://www.repoweramerica.org/wall/

See what everyone has to say and enjoy!

Excitement is in the Air

Yesterday we got together and started looking at all of our footage.It was very exciting to sit down and actually look at everything we've done so far.

Students watching the videos and writing down their favorite clips

It took about two and a half hours to get through everything but we got things narrowed down. It helped that we had our story boards completed. We wrote an outline on the board and added the clips under the proper categories so we could stay organized. Once we finished the videos we started working on our catch phrases. Jessica and Keela made me so happy when they started talking about how they've been using our catch phrases at home. They were a little nervous about repeating it for the camera but I talked them into it anyway.

Then we spent some time filming our catch phrases. This is one of our favorite ones to help people to remember to turn off the lights when they leave the room:

I can't wait to see this project start to come together. The students are doing such great work! September will be here before we know it! More fun to come!
Thanks! Megan
