Planned Digital Storytelling Project

As you can see by the date of this blog, I have been avoiding this topic like the plague. The reason is my inability to commit to an idea. I've changed from narrating a book already written like "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom," Numbers, Alphabet, High Frequency Words, Life Cycles... The list goes on. I think I am over-thinking this project way too much. So here goes - a commitment. (Unless anyone has a suggestion ;) ) My digital story will be about Earth Day. I will make a simple story breaking down the complex vocabulary such as the 3R's: reduce, reuse, recycle, along with environment, climate, etc. I have found that many books out there are still a little too advanced for my little ones, so I end up showing the pictures and paraphrasing them. This way I can choose my own simple pictures and tell about them in a way 5-year-olds can understand, and yet older ones will enjoy as well. Let me know what you think.
