Don't have everyone shooting at once – CHAOS! Instead, divide class up "into two groups - a photo-taking group, and an internet search group (see Activity Sheets: National Geographic Website Search). Switch after 15 minutes.

We will use these trial first shots in two ways:

  1. A visual class list display: see Day 3 "Candid Shots" and Day 4 "Captions"
  2. To compare our "untaught" photos to project-end photographs

5) Long Break

6) Web Search Sheets: Info Sharing: Share and compare National Geographic website photo choices and writing exercises. Any new vocabulary?

7) Vocabulary List and Glossary: *(See Activity Sheets). Begin to compile personal vocabulary lists and a glossary of photographic/ technical terms encountered during web research.

8) Short Break

9) Portfolio Making: *(See Activity Sheets). Begin this activity. You may need to complete it on Day 3.

10) Wrap Up

DAY THREE:

1) Check In

2) Finish Portfolios

3) Hand Back Candid Shots:
