TECH TIP: Animate Audio from Adobe Express
Animate from Adobe Express is a fun tool to quickly animate your audio recordings. You choose the character, background and video size. Then, all you do is record your narration. The more expression you put in your voice, the more the character moves. This could be a good tool for students to do quick narrations of character sketches, scientific concepts, reviews, etc. It works on Chromebooks, too! The file downloads, and they could then add it to their Google Drive to share with you. Here's my quick example:
BOOK TIP: The Winners by Fredrik Backman
I'm a HUGE FAN of Fredrik Backman and have loved all his books. The Winners is the final book in the Beartown trilogy. If you have not read them yet, go and get Beartown, which is book one. You will fall hopelessly in love with his characters and the town of Beartown. The Winners is a lot of book at 688 pages, but I devoured it over vacation and it left me full AND empty at the same time. It also left me in tears, but boy, did I enjoy it. Backman's writing is so poignant it left me re-reading passages just to admire them: "What is life, other than moments? What is laughter, other than a small victory over sorrow? A single moment, just one, when everything inside us isn't broken."
