Let Me Out of the Classroom

As far as implementing a digital storytelling project in my own classroom, I definitely think the most difficult aspects will depend on what grade level I am teaching. If I have older grades, then the technology part will probably be the hardest because if they are old enough to do this themselves, it will still take a lot of instruction to get them going. It took me a while to figure out everything that I needed to do for this assignment but I really liked how simple the photostory software was to use and I do think that older students even in Elementary school would be able to use that program. For younger children, I think that the storyboarding may be hard just because some of the children may be just learning how to write. However, after doing the voicethread for this week, I realized that this project could be easily simplified to fit any grade level. Also, this project could easily be spread out throughout a whole unit in the curriculum so that time was spent just a little here and there until the project was complete.
