Harold Godwinson and William the Conqueror

As part of the unit on Medieval Studies the students worked together to create an iMovie project with Harold and William themselves telling the audience about who they were and why, in their opinion, they should be King of England.
Students began by gathering information around four research questions then prepared a script. Each student took one historical character and used Morfo Booth give a voice to William or Harold. A storyboard was created by each student and then they shared their character movies with their partners. Using iMovie, each student imported the movies and added titles, transitions and an appropriate soundtrack. Everybody worked so hard on these projects with groups helping each other to plan, research, construct and export their projects.
