Book Trailers are a way for readers to preview a book and as students get the technology into their own hands, teachers are using it as an activity for students.
At our school we are looking at this. Here are some questions that we are thinking about.
- What language arts objectives mesh well with a book trailer format?
- What are the options for the book trailer? / How does the book trailer change based on what the needs are for the language arts objective?
- What are some different styles of book trailers?
- How much structure do you give students when doing their book trailers?
- How do you share the Book Trailers to create an authentic audience for the trailers?
I am going to write about each of those topics. I also feel like my understanding of those topics will change along the way. For Nudging I made both versions public. For these I might treat them more like a wiki entry and update them as I learn more.
