I worked for a long time on my Ignite. This is what what I did. First I got our topic and subtopic. The topics were Hurricanes, Tornados, Our group was Volcanoes, and my subtopic was Cause. I researched until I had enough information. The first week or so I barely got to research. There was also thanksgiving break so I couldn’t do anything. I researched the cause on Epic, Kiddle, all the websites on the library databases, and more. But certain information would not work because it either was not correct or it was another subtopic.
Then, I typed a narrative using our words. It was pretty simple because I had all the research; I now just had to type it. Later, I did my script. The script was a template on google docs which had the slides, time, what I say, and what the audience sees. I literally just had to copy, then paste. When I finished that, I started to time everything. I had to cut my narrative and try speaking faster. I then practiced and practiced.
These are my easiest and hardest parts. The hardest part for me was the practice because everyone was arguing. the easiest part was the narrative because I basically knew it all in my head. I liked this because I wanted to learn more about Volcanoes. I had a lot of fun.
Then, it was finally the day. The parents came in. I then waited for the other groups. Finally, it was our turn. I said my parts, and I did it! This is the 4th grade Volcano Ignite. The Volcano group made two videos, this is one of them. I really hope you like it too.
