About the Project
For this project, the 3rd graders at Collier Elementary will be recording a weather broadcast. The students will be paired in groups of 5. Together they will prepare a script, study and research weather patterns and events, and determine background, props, and costumes to be used in their broadcasts. Click on the links above to read the job duties for each group member. The teacher may use iMovie (for green screen effects), Windows Movie Maker or any other video editing program to create the broadcast.
