DIGITAL CREATIVE WRITING VIDEO ASSIGNMENT - DESIGN A SCHOOL
Use this digital Google video writing assignment as a way to foster student creative thinking while also helping to improve their writing. In this paperless assignment, students will create and design a new school, write about their first day at school from the first person perspective, and create an advertisement campaign to recruit new students.
This is a Google resource and students complete all the work on the computer. This works well with distance learning, 1:1 classrooms, remote teaching, Google Classroom, or online education.
The best part is that your purchase comes with a hand-drawn video, created by the talented John Spencer, that introduces the assignment to hook students in! Watch the preview video on this page to get a sneak peek of the video included and download the preview to get a closer look at the instructions, brainstorming slides, writing organizers, editing checklist, and advertisement project slides/organizers included! There is absolutely no prep required to implement this fully digital lesson/assignment/project!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
• Students watch a hand-drawn video that introduces the digital assignment to students to help them consider all the different aspects of their new school (lots of examples included). This video is highly engaging and will hook your students immediately. Watch the video preview on the product page to get a sneak peek.
• Use the eye-catching Google Slides presentations to introduce the digital assignment in more detail to your class and guide you through each element of the assignment/lesson/project.
