Voices Of The World
Instructions for April task: The Solar System
As 2009 is the Year of Astronomy, this month task is to do an activity concerning this.
You create a video the way you like, and be as creative you can using various ‘objects, materials’ presenting and saying the 9 planets mixed up with your kids favorite music –or creating your own!- beginning from the closer to the Sun planet.
(since 2006.. the planets are 8 + 1 dwarf planet)
You are free to choose the way you make your video, and where to upload it (e.g. Google Video, Teacher Tube).
Here are the things we all have to do the same way:
Start by introducing your school and location, as usual.
Then you'll say our "focus words":
"The solar system" (in your language, of course) and then name the planets (8+1) in the right order (also in your language) from the planet closest to the sun; "Mercury", "Venus", "Earth", "Mars", "Jupiter", "Saturn", "Uranus", "Neptune" and "Pluto".
It would be really nice if you could add a song at the end of your video.
About music, we have to be aware of that singing should not "disturb" the sayings of the words - therefore you must add your free choise of music after all the sayings of the focused words.
When you've uploaded your video, send the embed code to Kairi: kairi.laane@viimsi.edu.ee, or by using this mail: kairi.laane@gmail.com
Best regards, EvaR

Did VOTW start back up for the 09/10 school year?
I too haven't been able to partake in a while and was wondering if VOTW was going to continue into the 2009-2010 school year.
I have not been able to do last few tasks but new class are keen and I wondered if VOTW is still happening?
