Roosevelt Recording Studio

As you may or may not know, last year Roosevelt School received a PTO grant for a Recording Studio to go along with our "green screen" wall in Room 310.  So far we've had a some classrooms take advantage of it to film commercials, record weather reports, readers theatre, and newscasts just to name a few things!    As a reminder - the Roosevelt Recording Studio is available for everyone to use!  In addition to the green screen we have a digital video camera, a tripod, a microphone, two digital cameras, and a computer for editing.   This is a great way for students to interact with material - so if you're interested in planning a fun project - please let me know!   Let's take learning to the next level!

New Wall

Welcome Back! It was a pretty exciting morning here in Room 310! When I came into my office this morning, I was welcomed by a massive green wall... Roosevelt's own green screen!

This green screen is a great addition to my office so that teachers can come and shoot video on the green screen then manipulate their videos and put images behind them. A few teachers are currently working on putting together a newscast that will be shared on a website. Students are researching current events, working on some common core skills of summarizing, locating key information, and paraphrasing when reporting on their news articles. I have many teachers interested and hoping more will follow! If you are interested in using the green screen with your class, please let me know and I'd be happy to help!
