Math Vocabulary..."Avatar Style"

Project 1...You Be The Teacher

Hello ...Mrs Dilmore and myself have joined a Math Collaboration project called MathLincs. At this time, there are participating classes from Florida, Tennessee, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Washington, Israel, Turkmenistan and Canada! The first project is to have our students "Be the teacher" and teach a set of at least 5 Probability and Statistics vocabulary words using technology. Our class have decided to make "talking avatars" to teach the new vocabulary. We have posted links to our classroom blog on our class webpage.

We used gizmoz...I learned about it on the Den blogs...either Tennessee or Lisa's husband. My class loved your video. I figured that you used a green screen for the background and video taped your students...how did you get the handdrawn graphics and your animated creatures into the video???
