iMovie/Digital stories

I think that using digital stories as a tool in the classroom could be extremely beneficial. I think that it is great for visual learners who may need that little bit extra to help them comprehend a subject. It is great for engaging students in the subject and making it creative and fun. Since I will be teaching younger children, I would probably create the movies myself, or have the class collaboratively make a video with my help. I would use it for every subject. For example, in Science I would explain about different animals habitats, for Math, I would explain the process of addition and subtraction, and there are many other ideas. For older students, I think it would be beneficial for them to use the movies to create history projects, projects on countries, or people's personal histories.
