Seventh+Grade+Gallery

The Seventh Grade Gallery is a showcase of some of the work of the stellar seventh graders at SanLee Middle.

__The SanLee Seventh Grade Photo Diary Project__ The students were given an opportunity to create a photo diary by taking pictures of people, places, and objects important to them, writing about their pictures, and then placing them in a powerpoint presentation. To prepare for the project, the students studied photography via Brainpop.com, viewed and responded to a powerpoint of well-known photographs, and then received a disposable camera to create their diary. They chose their favorite pictures for their powerpoints, which can be seen below. In addition, you may view the Teacher's Picks powerpoint (my favorites), along with the supplemental material used throughout the project itself.

 * Teacher's Resources:** The following resources were used throughout the project. First, the powerpoint introduced the students to quality photography plus the concepts and vocabulary necessary to complete the assignment. The powerpoint script was generally followed as the students viewed and responded to the photographs, filling out their vocabulary sheets and study guides as the presentation progressed. Then, along with the cameras, they were given a photograph log. They recorded the subjects, dates, and locations of the pictures they took. This would make identifying them later a little easier. After the photographs were developed, they titled them using that form and then chose their five favorites to describe and analyze. They used the Writing form for this and then transferred their writing onto their powerpoints. I used the Mini-rubric to evaluate their Powerpoints and their presentations.
