Digital Storytelling Lesson

 When introducing digital storytelling to my class, a great start would be an autobiography or personal narrative about themselves or family. Writing using experience or what they know seems to be the easiest and would be an excellent wat for students to share with their classmates interesting things about them.

The particular digital storytelling project that I have chosen could actually be directed toward any grade level. Of course the demands in middle school and high school would be relatively higher and require more in depth elements. I am going to direct this lesson towards 1st-3rd graders. The students would be required to brainstorm what they wanted to share with their classmates in their project (i.e likes/dislikes, activites, hobbies, family, school). The students would then think about how they wanted show them (i.e pictures, drawings, art, graphics, live video, animations). Before putting it into a an actual digital storytelling, they would put it into a rough draft on paper that will guide them. At last they will then execute it on the program of choice.
