The Storyline Method!
The strategy of learning effective storywriting through the creationof 3D puppets and storyboards for telling a story.
Students used immense creativity in converting odds and ends into props and backgrounds for their journey into another solar system - Kanga Banga solar system
Students were given data about possible planet forms and asked to create corresponding planet forms as well as alien forms that are suited to that planet.
Students went on an elaborate journey through both solar systems and solved the problemto save the day!
Students reflected upon what made the presentaions engaging and enticing and they subsequently wrote individual stories as well.
