Discuss

Have each person take about a minute to explain what they looked at and how they thought they could use the green screen in their classroom.

Everyone else will listen and use the chart paper to free write individual and collective thoughts on the chart paper as you discuss as a group. Free write as much as you would like from the discussion.

Circle & Share

Based on your small group conversations circle EIGHT (8) of the most important words on your poster as a group. Then use these eight words to help inspire a statement summarizing how your group sees using Green Screens in their classroom.

Then go to the collaborative notes doc and share your groups statement in the orange table, just pick a group number and write it out.

Make a Video

1. Come up with an idea
2. Change the background (you might have to get an image from the internet and save to your camera roll)
3. Try adding a couple of different vApps (picture, youtube video, etc...)
4. Once you have all your components come to the green screen and record. 

​There is a storyboard here that you can use if you wish, it will force you to make a copy.

Questions & Discussion

Share out? Anyone want to share their videos? 

Let's take a look at some additional ideas! Here is a slide deck from Ann Kozma from Fullerton School District and I loved her ideas on tools needed and tips and tricks! She is using DoInk which is a paid for app but the ideas still apply!
