  3. My Favorite Digital Story! • http://www.dtc.scott.k12.ky.us/technology/digitalstorytelling/turntables_T1.mov • This digital story was done by an amazing strong fourth grader who goes through a life change.

  4. Point of View • The main point to this digital story is that a little girl, named Jordan, goes through a life event when she commits herself of being baptized. • Her view point is that she knows this special event will change her life forever.

  5. A Dramatic Question • Jordan goes through so many feelings that she leads the listeners to believe she may back down from being baptized. • She keeps the audience's attention by going through the stages that lead her to the final steps of being baptized in her church.

  6. Emotional Content • Jordan tells her story in such a powerful way that it leaves a person to think back when they went through a scary event in their life. • She makes one feel like they are there with her and feel the need in helping her through this major change in her life.

  7. The Gift of Her Voice • Jordan’s voice changes as she tells her story from being scared to being extremely happy. • She even uses very descriptive words to explain her major adventure.

  8. The Power of the Soundtrack • The music Jordan chose was done by Enya called A Day Without Rain. • The sound of this song in the back ground gives the whole digital story support as it beautifies what Jordan is trying to tell her audience.

  9. Economy • Jordan tells her story in a timely manner that she does not overload or bore her audience. • She keeps her listeners interested in what she is going to say next.

  10. Pacing • Jordan paces herself as she reads her digital story through the microphone. • When she wants to reach her audience's attention, her tone either goes up or down as she moves her voice in an exciting or frightful tone.

  11. Finally. . . • This is a fantastic digital story and everyone should listen to this story. • Remember, there are 27 more student digital stories to view at the website located in the second slide!
