ART CANOE

Making Drawings Interactive with the Doink Green Screen app One of my 6th graders was experimenting with the Doink Green Screen app. She worked on adding video in the background and as audio for their drawings.

Flashback Thursday After receiving a Fulbright grant to Japan in 2003, I came back and integrated many new projects and ideas into my art curriculum. My 5th students still create Noh ceramic masks after learning about Japanese theatre. Now, I look for ways to keep learning fresh and new for myself and my students. I tweet regularly as a part of my personal learning/professional network. Below is a gif I created from my Fulbright trip pics using a Chrome app. Made a cool animated GIF with #GIFPAL using Noh mask pics from my '03 Japanese Fulbright trip pic.twitter.com/sRytBVa0XQ — Hether Hoffmann (@HetherHoffmann) December 18, 2014

Haiku Video The eighth graders are using video to illustrate their Haiku poems. They must create a video with 5-7-5 second clips that visually relate to the poem. I am also encouraging them to try animation and the Doink Green Screen App as well. My green screen example is below.
