Make Hollywood-style trailers
• Choose from 14 trailer templates with stunning graphics and original scores by some of the world's top film composers
• Customize movie studio logos, cast names, and credits in the Outline
• Select the best videos and photos for your trailer with the help of animated drop zones in the Storyboard
• Add content from your library or record new footage right into your trailer

1. PBL or thematic units - students in the primary grades use hands-on manipulatives to solve math problems

2. Keep students focused - take pictures of the process of learning and use iMovie trailers as a formative assessment of the math objective

3. iMovie does not need to be an end of project goal

4. Integrate - area and perimeter islands:

- write a fictional story about the islands using the mathematical dimensions

- learn about landforms in social studies

Take photos and video during creation of project! Students stay focused!

For the final part of the formative assessment, students took a screen shot of the "island" and put it into the Doodle Buddy app. Then they showed how they found area and perimeter. This was the last slide in the iMovie Trailer

Mathematical Practices

1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4. Model with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
7. Look for and make use of structure.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Students used the GPS analytics tab during the race to analyze elapsed time, rest periods, elevation and the the speed of each musher

The Iditarod theme was integrated into all subject areas

Use the app as a formative assessment when analyzing data and making observations.
