Green screen fun!

We set the green screen up in the lab and 4th grade has been having fun exploring!  I'm eager to post their videos, but so far they are just works-in-progress, so I'll hold off.  For now, here are some photos. 





We are using the Do Ink app on the iPads, in conjunction with iMotion and the camera app.  I'll post some finished projects when the kids are done.

2018!

It's a whole new year and I clearly have not done well with maintaining this blog!  I love blogging, but boy, time is always of the essence. For more up-to-the-minute info about what's going on in the library, follow me on Instagram at @dbslibrary.

The start of the year has brought with it new books, new students, new robots, a few snow days, and a huge Scholastic Bookfair order!  This month the students will be learning programing with Lego WeDos and Wonder Workshop's Dash and Dot.  Other students will be learning about how to create movies using the green screen we have.  Our Battle of the Books continues, with five teams competing in Round 3 at the end of this month.  There will be lots of stories, stuffed animals to cuddle, and fun things to learn.




I'll try to update here a little more often because I do love to read blogs and hope others still do to, but I know Instagram and Facebook provide more timely access to information.  Stick around for some library fun!
