New Storyboard.

Well, I decided to change my project, because it wasn't very good, and I want to do a book trailer like Betsy, because her's is really, really cool. Why can't mine be really, really cool, too? So I'm putting together a book trailer for Dante's Inferno. Mostly because it's the coolest poem/book ever written. Ever. And people need to know this. Also, this project connects to the Utah state core (12th grade):

Standard 2 Objective 2:
(Extended Writing): Write to critique literary text and to evaluate informational text. (Emphasize expository writing. Students should use the entire writing process to produce at least one extended piece per term, not necessarily limited to the type of writing emphasized at individual grade levels.)

Standard 3 Objective 2:
(Written Communication of Inquiry): Write to evaluate and report research results.

1. Select an appropriate format to evaluate information, determine results and make recommendations.
2. Gather, evaluate, and organize research on a specific topic.
3. Support main points using a variety of convincing and relevant information.
4. Use informal and formal citations, where appropriate, to support inquiry.

The assignment will be to put together a book trailer for a book that they've read. The point will be to show that they've read the book, understand the mood or tone of it and the central conflict, and can put it together in a creative, appropriate way that is properly cited.
