Technology and the Shadow Show

The grey, rainy afternoon was the perfect setting for working with our shadow images.   Children spent time reviewing the images, selecting additional images, and added music to their "Star Show"  (working title).  They often chose movements that featured the same person and put them together.  As they chose and manipulated images, they had to work with moving the mouse, as well as scrolling and clicking with the mouse.  There was some debate about subject matter.  Children expressed an interest in creating a butterfly show or a unicorn show.  They eventually decided to complete the work with the current collection of images.  Perhaps other shows will follow!

Some of our reflections:
    Jessica - Does it look like the shadows are still or moving?
    Joslin- Moving!

    While watching the movie......
    Louise  - Ooooh..... I like the music.
    Grace - I like the music that one of you chose.
    Lou Lou - (Reflecting on the image in the photo to the left) I think it looks like the shadows are moving.  Like they're going to a different house and like someone is giving her a hand to go to the house.

Shadow Images, Part 2

Children also used shadow images to work on a translucent shadow kite for the book fair.   They selected photos that they wanted included, and arranged them on a kite shape.   We noticed that the children chose the same images for both the ballet and the kite.

Lou Lou, Louise, and Leigh set up materials on the light table to greet the educators that will be coming to St. John's for a DCREA meeting tonight.  And.....GO NATIONALS!
