Teacher: Ms. White Grade 5 |
||
| Fifth-graders at San Jose Elementary School made digital stories about their experiences studying with a professional architect, Todd Smith. During the course of a three-month residency in which Mr. Smith visited Ms. White's class one day a week, he introduced the students to the basics of architecture and took them on a field trip to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, a remarkable building designed by world-famous architect Frank Gehry. He also advised the students as they broke into small groups and created their own architectural models. At the end of the project, the models were included in a display for viewing by fourth-grade classes. The students' digital stories capture the excitement of this unique opportunity with a combination of images, video clips, music, and recorded narration (some of it in rhyme).
