I REALLY enjoyed this project. I took it a little crazy in fact.

so turns out that the video has to have some sort of educational application, so I downloaded a preview for an american tale, Fieval Goes West, and annotated it to highlight the themes of the film in terms of their attributes that reflect American Exceptionalism, Manifest Destiny, and westward expansion in 19th century America. This helps the kids to pull what I see out of a video, and it gives me a chance to infuse what I want them to be thinking about while they watch something without pausing and explaining. I also get a chance be funny.. Because you have to be funny. or else nobody's going to pay attention. Anyway, the annotation stuff works for any video you want to upload, on any subject. I really enjoyed it. Here's the educationally annotated vid.
