 * __Week That Was -__** Every two weeks our children star in a movie about the things that have been happening throughout the past two weeks. This is then played on our office LCD screen for Parents to view over the next few weeks.

__**Video Diary**__ - Take a video diary of all the things that happen throughout the year with your class. Burn it to DVD at the end of the year and your children have a fantastic memory

__**Silent Movies-**__ Give your children a budget and charge them for using any equipment, time or anything else. Have them story board an idea for a silent movie and then create it.

__**Camp Video/Productions**__ - Video everything you can and print it to DVD and sell them. Parents love the live memories and so do the students.

__**Storytelling**__ - Have older students work with younger students to tell a story using video. [] Could be a reading group or class. Children are able to create props and act it out.
