 * Overview** **:** Each group must create a 2-3 minute vodcast that reflects one of the units studied during the year (restaurant, train station, bus station, staying in shape, holidays, etc.) The topic/unit will be assigned to them. The vodcast must include a narration (in Spanish of course), Spanish music, and video or pictures. This project is used to summarize and apply concepts learned throughout the year.======

**Activities and Procedures:**
1. Students will be broken into groups of four. 2. Each group will brainstorm a skit that integrates that concepts in the unit assigned to them. 3. Groups will receive storyboard poster-board in order to outline the skit. 4. A list of materials and props will be produced and presented to teacher for approval. 5. Students will then prepare and practice dialogue. 6. Next, students will create their production: - They will have to choose music and record a narration - They will have to record and edit the skit - They will post the final product online (for example: on a blog, in YouTube, a class wiki, etc.) - They will also have to create a worksheet to accompany their video (which students will complete as they watch) 7. We will then watch the productions during class. Students will complete the worksheet that accompanies their video. We will review the answers and talk about the production.
