Yesterday we had a borough-wide CPD Day. I was lucky enough to be able to choose what I wanted to do, rather than have a day of workshops thrust upon me, so I chose to go to our local CLC for a day of creativity on Apples.
We were given the task of making a film, using iMovie and we had to include a flashback. So, we got into groups of 4 - we were 3 linguists and an ICT teacher (unfortunately for the ICT teacher!). We quickly decided to go all French and arty, planning to use Déjeuner du matin by Jacques Prévert. The final result can be seen below and we were all very pleased with the outcome. We would have liked to have added some piano music in the background for that true arty feel but, unfortunately we ran out of time!
I'm now buzzing with ideas as to how I can use what I learnt with my pupils - just need the time to be able to do it...
Wow ! Looks like a very good day was had by all. Love it ! Very atmospheric and moody.
