This is a cartoon video that I would enbed in my classroom computer that students would be able to open when the moving lab was in my classroom. I would use it right before a research project on the linear events of the Revolutionary War. || Karen ||  || This YouTube video gives middle and high school Social Studies classes a look at the women who fought for women’s and human rights; Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Mother Jones, Jane Addams, Florence Kelley, Alice Paul, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Lucy Parsons, Emma Goldman, Julia O’Connor, Frances Perkins, Rosa Parks, Coretta Scott King, Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem. This video would be used at the beginning of Women’s History month. || Karen ||  || = Home  > Group A Workspace > Learning Activity 5-B-1: Storytelling Examples =

 * media type="youtube" key="n_XAtOkqq9U" height="390" width="480" || This is a short digital story made by a school student about his personal experience with baseball. This can be an example of a digital story that a student can make for a class project. I wouldn't call this story "emotional," but it does include a reference to a young person's emotions. This story uses some cartoon characters to represent real-life people, and a narration. || Peter ||  ||
 * media type="youtube" key="U47eR8LMGhI" height="349" width="560" || This is a digital story about a Math teacher who took a risk and ended up with a great unit for her students. Although not a student product, it shows a story about a successful teacher who changed her ideas for her students. It is quite fitting for our class. We can learn from the example and know that many times, the risks you take for your students help them immensely. This story uses pictures and narration. || Peter ||  ||
 * media type="youtube" key="LEoTKxr9EyY?hd=1" height="349" width="425" || This is a digital story about a young boy who took a vacation with his family before his parents got divorced. This doesn't have a specific curricular content, but it shows a story that is very emotional. The author links his vacation with his parents' divorce, his fears in growing up without both parents, and some closure as he is preparing to be a father. This video can be used for high schoolers who want to be taught how to make an emotional appeal with your movie. Or quite possibly, to council a young student who is going through the same pain as the author. This story uses mainly pictures and narration, with background music. || Peter ||  ||
 * [|Woodson] || “Can This Be His Home?” uses photographs, music, and narration to tell the story of the adoption of a little boy named Woodson. This Digital Story could be used across multiple grade levels to discuss family and serve an example of a narrative. It is a great example of beginning middle and end. This story invokes emotions because it describes and shows real life pictures of a boy who lived in the Haitian slums who eventually gets a new family. Through the photographs the viewer can see a strong bond created with his family, especially his brother. Woodson goes from a dangerous place to a home where he belongs. || Marcy ||  ||
 * [|Lulu and Betty] || Lulu and Betty is a story written by a first grader. It is about two cats who are best friends. After getting into a fight, one decides she doesn’t like the other anymore and pushes her into a well. She immediately regrets what she did and tries to save her friend. This digital story uses clip art, narration, and music. This story would be a great example of a published product to use with students at the elementary level. The story also teaches an important lesson, be careful what you say and do. This could be used with a character education lesson or a lesson on identifying morals of stories. || Marcy ||  ||
 * [|Rabbit Story] || Rabbit Story is a digital story written by a high school student. The author uses photographs, narration, and music to reflect on a past experience in her life. She writes about the time she begged her dad for a pet rabbit, but when she finally gets it she is in for a surprise. Elementary students are often asked to draw on past experiences to write autobiographical narratives. This would be a great example to use with a class who was preparing to write. The students could also analyze the story when they are ready to publish their own pieces of writing. || Marcy ||  ||
 * [] || This cartoon video"School House Rock - Shot Heard 'Round the World" done by the School House Rock Kids. It starts with a cartoon of Paul Revere and ends with the a peopled map of the current contiguous 48 states, all to music and lyrics of many of the events of the American Revolution.
 * [] || This iYouTube cartoon of Sesame Street characters talking about why Wahsington is crossing the Delaware River. This video would be used in the same manner before discussing Washington's crossing the Delaware River preceding a class trip to the Delaware Crossing Park in Valley Forge. || Karen ||  ||
