Today we made videos of our plans for the novels we are going to write very soon.
We want to upload the videos (perhaps on our class blog) and link to them from our individual blogs. Thanks to Murcha for reminding me of TeacherTube .. that’s not filtered here in South Australia.
We had to talk about our plans (these can be changed later)
The Title.
Audience.
Setting … Who, Where, When
A Complication or Problem
Events in Order .. Firstly, Next, Then, After That, Finally …
Ending/Resolution.
It was our normal Tuesday Literacy time. It was great, Mrs Thomas and Gerrie were in the room helping us.
Here is Taylah’s first video take. It’s an experiment … ‘Link to: Page’ takes less space and works well 
Taylah’s Novel - complete draft
Alex’s Novel - links to TeacherTube [Ctrl+K]
Another quick test …
from Chris Betcher in Sydney http://cubo.cc/
Minis is this what you meant when we talked about avatars of the near future? 
(test is because it might be filtered in South Australia)
In Chris’ latest post he quotes an eSchool News article ” … educators in Finland, Sweden, and Denmark all cited autonomy, project-based learning, and nationwide broadband internet access as keys to their success.”

Today we made this Voki together.
