A Modified Choice Attempt- Still Life Drawings

It seems like forever ago that we stared this project but throw in a 16-day winter break and everything feels like it happened months ago. Here is the breakdown of a open ended project we worked on this quarter:

Still life set up- students took a photo of their favorite angle and saved it on their iPad. They used this as a reference in their drawings. 

Students had free range of what they wanted to use mediums. 

As students played, experimented and determined what mediums would go where they recorded their process. The footage was used to create reflection videos/demos of their personal engagement and persistence. Check out the yogurt cup iPad stand! 

Recording a reflection...

iMovie was the app of choice to cut, blend and sync footage together. 

Finished works below.

Check out Mrs. Hare's Vimeo (like youtube but cooler) link for a review of all document camera videos shot in class. This is also a great way to get caught up if you miss school.
