Using the Green Screen to be in a Wampanoag Village

Students in 3rd grade learned about the Wampanoag people.

Essential Questions
Who were the Wampanoag people?
How did the Wampanoag use natural resources?
What were the traditions and customs of the Wampanoag?
Who were the Wampanoag leaders?

 In this unit of study, teachers taught the content through a Google slideshow.  See below:



Students created a Wampanoag story book, a poem, pictures, and answered questions to help them understand the life of the Wampanoag people.



Students worked collaboratively in groups to create murals and three-dimensional projects for Wampanoag villages during each season.


Students "fell" into their mural projects using Green Screen by Do Ink and iMovie.  They wrote their scripts, practiced their lines, and acted in their video.  Check out their videos below.
