Teacher: Ms. O'Neal
Period 1

 
  Ms. O'Neal's first-period students researched a variety of topics about the Civil War, and then each student told a story from the perspective of a Civil War participant. Using Adobe Premiere, students collaborated in small teams to assemble and edit a narrative, pictures, and music into a three- to five-minute presentation.
