For Dr. Vitulli's, EDM301 class we have an upcoming puppetry assignment where we have to create our own puppet, and record a puppet show. So, I decided to use my puppet show for my short movie project. The puppet show is a kindergarten lesson on opposites. The movie could be used after a lesson about opposites or during to discuss opposites, and the students could identify the many different opposites throughout the video. The great thing about using the video is, the video could be paused and the teacher could talk about the different opposites at that time they were presented instead of waiting until the end of the video. This would allow her to assess the children's comprehension of opposites. In one part of the video, a turtle and a cheetah is used for the opposites, slow and fast. The teacher could ask students questions about why is the turtle shown or why is the cheetah shown... in return the students could say because the turtle is slow or because the cheetah is fast. Emily Nadeau (FLaV Ha) and Alison Stacey (Sally Jane) decided to join me and together we created three very unique puppets, as you will see in the video, and we created the short movie/video; a parody to Paula Abdul's Opposite's Attract. Hope you enjoy!
