This project is designed to help students create a short documentary film using the information they gathered to create an animal report. It can be used after writing an animal report or can be adapted to be used as the actual animal report. It can be designed to appear as a documentary series with all students having the same title opening, or be completely standalone. Students will be learning to find creative commons photos and videos to use in their film. They will create their film using iMovie on their iPads. Brown-Throated three-toed sloth female face.jpg- Wikimedia Commons
