Brainstorm what information is important about Fry. 2. Choose 5 things you want to teach others about. 3. Write 5 sentences 4. Draw a picture on your poster board that depicts the information you want to talk about. Besides your title, do not label your picture. Choose a side of your poster board for your 5 interactive pieces. Choose how you would like to label them. (1,2,3 or A, B, C, or Titles that go with your sentences). *Be sure to leave space between each one. |
6. Go to "Sound" and select the microphone. This will let you record a new sound / sentence. Title your sound (sentence). When ready, press the RECORD (circle) button and speak clearly. Press STOP when finished. Preview your recording by pressing PLAY. If you don't like it, delete it and try again.
