Captone I: Who's Who in Colonial History
I created a SoftChalk lesson to help students identify important people from the Colonial American period. Softchalk is a program that allows you to create a web-based lesson which can contain many pages. The software also allows you to include enbeded video and audio files along with activities such as word search and matching into your lesson. The completed lesson was saved on the school server and a link added to the student SharePoint site for easy access. .[|www.softchalk.com] Lesson Plan

Capstone II: Dateline Virginia- A Capital Idea
My Capstone II project centered around the reason why the colonial capital was moved two times. Students created a digital storytelling project that they filmed in front of a green screen. The final project was shown on the school closed circuit TV and uploaded to the student SharePoint site for easy viewing.
