Challenge Three- Web 2.0 Creation

I had a grand time playing on Xtranormal.  I made a movie to introduce the next bbok that we will be reading in my fifth grade literacy group.  I could so see the students getting involved in making their own movies on a variety of options.  I choose to use "the Suitz", a more business and professional looking set but the option are there to intice kids with a more youthful, urban look. 
I lost the video though because of trouble with my account.  I ended up creating an account again.  I made a slightly different video.  I wish it did not cost to use the site.  The account that you start with is granted 300 points.  It is enough to make 2 videos if you do not use the "more expensive" backgrounds and actors.  An education site costs $10 per a month.  Don't these sites realize that schools have no money for this kind of thing.

I don't know if it is included on your list but I went to a workshop on digital storytelling yesterday, a great compliment to the technology challenge.  I made an animoto video.  It does not cost and it is super fun.
