Project+Overview

YOU DID WHAT?! 100 Best Prairie Dog Behaviors PROBLEM: Everyone benefits from appropriate school behavior. But students most often arrive at school with no or little understanding of the proper way to act in school.

SOLUTION: Appropriate school behavior needs to be taught to students. And who better to teach our students than their very own peers. This project will result in a series of very short videos that will demonstrate inappropriate behavior and the corresponding appropriate behavior. Each video will be done in a template format, ensuring consistency. Script writing, rehearsal and production will be done by students.

EXEMPLARS:


 * Behavior || Video ||
 * Using Shelf Markers in the LMC || media type="custom" key="23577784" ||
 * Carrying a laptop || media type="custom" key="23577766" ||

YOUR ROLE: We will need 2-3 students PER video (off screen narrator and actor(s). We are asking that you fill out the following on-line form and let us know how many students you would like to involve. We would love to have your entire class, or, you may choose just a few groups. Simply complete the form!

TIMING: Because this behavior needs to be addressed immediately upon student return to school, we plan to do the filming and production during the first week of school. The script writing is in a template and the actual filming will be less than 2 minutes. But the return will last the entire year!

ACADEMIC COMPONENTS:
 * collaboration/cooperation
 * vocabulary builder
 * problem-solving
 * reinforcement
 * publishing
 * body of evidence

Don't miss this opportunity...for you, your students, and our school!
