Several sixth graders requested a link to the website I made that describes how to make the iMovie about recycling. We have kids doing news casts, raps, songs, and wonderful skits to teach others about keeping the environment clean.
Below is a link to the website: https://cioncarecycles.weebly.com/ Sixth graders are working hard on their movies to educate others about pollution and ways that kids and their families can reduce pollution. Many kids have asked me about the apps that we are using in class. Below I have listed the free apps that we are using along with a link to information about them:
ChatterPix Kid Animate It Lite iMovie free Here is a sneak peak at our giant 6th grade community collage inspired by Romare Bearden. Students worked together to create buildings, exploring how overlap can create space and texture and pattern can create interest in artwork. A collaborative project like this one develops students, collaboration, communication and creative problem solving skills. We cannot wait to see the finished product.
After learning about Tyree Guyton's great Heidelberg Project in Detroit, and how artists can inspire a positive change in their community, Northern Trails sixth graders are using cans, caps and other scraps to create characters. These characters will be featured in student made movies about things kids and their families can do to make our community a safer, greener and healthier place for the people, plants and animals that call it home.

Northern Trails Fifth Graders are about to find out!!! Get ready to be blown away by some AMAZING Northern Trails 5/6 graphic designers. These kids have done an outstanding job developing graphics to be printed on many items for our Original Works fundraiser. A packet will be arriving via backpack with all of the information you need to get you hands on this one of a kind merchandise. Proceeds fund our cultural arts programing at Northern Trials.
