Spanish Videos

The eight grade Honors Spanish class recently finished creating videos about how to cook meals speaking only in Spanish. The requirements for this project were to: speak solely in Spanish, be creative, last no less than three minutes, have minimal breaks in the speech, use of the vocabulary and the grammar  learned during class, have a written draft of what was said during the video, and to show organization.  It was also required that we not read from queue cards during the video. The total possible points that could be received was seventy-five.  In my video,  I made chicken tacos.  During the video,I went to the supermarket to buy the ingredients, and then cooked the chicken tacos in my kitchen.  I thought that this project was very challenging, and a great learning experience.  Taping this video took a lot of time.  I made my video in the application called "I-Movie".  I was able to take short videos and then put them all together to make one long and flowing video!  For future classes that require creation of a video,  I would definitely recommend allotting a lot of time to tape and edit the video! After completing this video, I feel that I know the vocabulary from the section that was covered in class. We had to present our videos to the entire class.  Everyone's videos were great, and very creative!
