Photo Slide Show

For this project, I will help my students take their pictures that they made for their photo album of likes and dislikes and we will make a slideshow with them.  The students will be able to watch their videos on the computer which will be of interest to them not only because it is about them but because they helped make it.  For my sample, I used Animoto.  I have to say it was easy to use and I really liked how it had sample music to choose from on the site to use in the slide show.  What I didn't like about Animoto was it only makes a 30 second slide show for free and anything beyond that I would need to pay for a subscription to the site.  Also, with power point I am able to use a switch and have the students press the switch in order to change the slide and see a new photo.  With Animoto, the slide show was more like a movie and played all the way through.  In some situations this is good but I wouldn't use it very frequently for my students since I like for them to participate as much as possible in every activity. Below is my saple video.
