5th Grade Indie Film

While trying to ponder on open-ended activities I might facilitate with my class this coming school year, I remember the homemade film produced by my students as their project in their fifth grade Science class last year.

The idea of producing a film was courtesy of Teacher Benji, their laboratory instructor. Thus, Teacher Heidi guided them in finalizing the script and during the production proper.


So what are you waiting for, bring out your popcorn bags and enjoy the show!

Special thanks to Teacher Mena and Teacher Irene.

I was really amazed by the creativity of these kids in producing this short film. Their ingenuity to generate such opus, their perseverance to finish it, and their assertion that even with this simple piece of work, they had proven to the world that 11-year-old children can initiate change.
