**Math Assignment: Friday's Directions:)**
Follow these directions very carefully as you are in charge of measuring the shape you are assigned (both its perimeter and area). More importantly though, you are making a video to explain area and perimeter to other students!

1. Each of you have been assigned a letter (you and your computer partner work together). That letter corresponds to a shape that is located somewhere in the 4th grade hallway or 5th grade hallway. Find your shape. 2. Measure both the perimeter and area in inches. Write them down on a scratch paper. 3. Be sure to check your measurements with Mr. T. 4. Figure out how you are going to show someone how you measure both perimeter and area of your shape. Decide who will be demonstrating and who will be filming. 5. Come back to Mr. T and tell him who will be doing which part. 6. Get a digital camera and go film your explanation of measuring perimeter and area.

Math Assignment: Monday's Directions:)
1. Download the footage onto your computer (into iPhoto). 2. Open up iMovie and bring all of your footage into iMovie. 3. Edit all the parts you want, trash ones you don't need. 3. Mute the audio in your video track (uncheck the box over to the right of the video track)

Do the remainder of the steps, in whatever order you choose:

4. Using the fancy microphone, go into a quiet room and record your voice explaining what you are doing in the video. 5. Add a title to the video explaining what it is. 6. Any any cool effects-don't be too wild on this one, like changing the colors or anything that will distract the viewer from the point of the video. 7. Be ready to share your video to others in the class on Wednesday!
