My Project

We have an amazing bunch of creative students this year! We are looking to purchase kid-friendly camcorders to be used to help record speeches, essays, and video projects. We will be competing in a speech and debate tournament in the second half of the year. We would love to be able to have students practice speaking on camera to prepare for our upcoming contests. During our three major projects of the year, we would also be able to use these camcorders to have students interview each other and record clips for our end-of-year video.

We have multiple students interested in filming video projects in which they have written scripts, developed characters, and engaged in creative writing.

We would love to nurture those skills and build upon something they find fun and engaging!
