In Bible this week, the students will be working on a Newscast of the Fall of Jerusalem. They have been paired up with a partner to create a bible product for a commercial in between news stories. Some have asked to bring items from home to use as props. They will be filming all next week and piecing this show together. This is a big project in team work and coordination. Afterward, I will create a movie of the broadcast to share with the rest of the school.
