Project 7
For this project I used Photo Story 3 to create a digital story.
I chose to make a story just using pictures of my friends,
family, and I from the last year. I had a lot of fun making my
photo story because it was fun to look back at the fun I've had over
the last year. For this project I saved pictures from my online
albums onto my U drive. I then uploaded them into Photo Story.
I added captions to all of the pictures either saying where they
were or the names of who was in the pictures. For music I used
the song You're Gonna Miss This by Trace Adkins. I bought the
song online and downloaded it to my U drive. I chose this song
because it's about wanting to grow up but you're going to miss the
times you had. I really enjoyed this project and didn't have much
trouble with it. I liked that we were given an opportunity to be
creative and to do something that we can relate to.
I think this photo story could be a
lot of fun in the classroom. You can use it to teach a lesson
using photos. You could also use it to make a photo story about a
class play, a class field trip, or any class activity. It could
also be a fun way to get to know students at the beginning of the year.
You could have students make their own photo storys with pictures
of themselves, or things they like and are interested in.
