THIS VIDEO EXPLAINS TODAY'S EXPECTATIONS!
Today's Agenda:

  1. Announcements
    1. Audio Lesson 1 and Audio Lesson 2 are now PAST DUE. You can still hand them in, but we only meet for 15 days this Quarter and do not have the time to pause instruction.
  2. Today's Lesson
    1. Begin by completing Audio 1 (Canvas Link) and Audio 2 (Canvas Link). They build up the skills needed to complete this new project.
  3. Audio 3: 6 Sound Story Script
    1. Grading Rubric:
      4 Points Story has very few spelling and/or grammatical errors. Proofread!
      3 Points Story uses 3 of the 6 sound effects from this list: [cat meow], [rim shot], [applause], [crowd laugh], [crash], & [small dog bark]
      3 Points Story and sound effects fit well together.
      1. Listen to the following 6 sounds in this Google Drive folder.
      2. Sound effects can be used to tell a story. Which of these recordings sound like they could be part of a great adventure?
      3. Stories often have more than one sound to help build the scene. Which of these sounds could be used together?
      4. Today, I would like you to write a short story that could use three of these six sounds.
        1. It can be a 3 sentence story again if you want, but it doesn't have to be that exact number. 
        2. During our next class, we'll use WeVideo to combine the sound effects with our stories to make them more awesome!
        3. When you are writing your story, include the sound effect between brackets [like this].
          1. Example: "And then a storm rolled in [thunder] so I opened the door to go inside [door squeak]."
        4. To begin writing your story, use the text box below this assignment in Canvas.
        5. Proofread your script! Typos will affect your grade.
          You will only have two attempts to hand this in. If your first attempt does not earn a 10/10 you will receive feedback on how to improve it.
