1st Grade Academy Awards in Mrs. Bach's Class

Mrs. Bach's 1st graders at Reynolds Elementary created Superhero iMovie Trailers to learn about their Verbs!  During the process we wrote out our storyboards, had students videotape and take pictures of each other to act out the verbs they picked on the playground, and had The Academy Awards in class with their parents to showcase their hard work.  Students dressed up, Walked a Red Carpet, and signed autographs at the end of all the presentations!
