Meeting 6 – Nov 19

Todays meeting was my favorite by far. I shared my screen with the class to show the script we wrote with the students. One of the students, Dion was thrilled to read it out loud. In fact he read every single line all the way through for every character! His reading was very theatrical and enthusiastic he made up different voices for each character. I honestly was cracking up he was getting so in to it. This was such a great moment to observe with the students because we have had a difficult time connecting with them in previous meetings.

After Dion read the first scene his classmates begged him to keep reading. He did so without persuasion. The students liked the script but asked that we work to rhyme it a little bit more. I like this suggestion they gave us. Our next steps are to finalize the script and create the video. Once the teacher sends us the photos they are working on we can add the audio to it. As of now we are going to use our own voices, however, after today we are wanting to include Dion! I look forward to bringing this project together and each week its becoming more real!
