Grade 5 Digital Storytelling – Honoring the memories of someone special

Digital Storytelling – Honoring the memories of someone special
Students will write a personal narrative about honoring the memories of someone special to them.  What did this individual do to leave/have an impact on your life?  They will use the writing process of prewriting, writing, revising, editing and publishing to create the narrative story.  While writing, students will apply the 6-traits of writing to create their project: ideas/content, organization, voice, word choice, sentence fluency & conventions.  The final product of digital storytelling will be published through Photo Story 3.  
I think that original art work would really make this great - and with each image the students could use voice-over to narrate the story.
