We used the app Movie Trailer to "wrap up" our study of the Midwest Region of our country. We took a tour of the region visiting places such as Mt. Rushmore and the Gateway Arch. More than that, we learned that this region is known as "The Breadbasket of America" because it raises most of the wheat and corn we all use.
The students learned a great deal and to show all they learned, they broke into groups to create a movie trailer that summed up the main ideas they gleaned from our unit of study.
Our essential questions for this project were:
- How do you use the Movie Trailer app?
- How do you summarize what you learned about the Midwest into a Movie Trailer?
- What are the most important places and ideas to teach others about the Midwest?
