a lesson taught that went well (Tell me what you see)

The unit we are on now is audio/sound. in an effort to get my students to understand the importance of audio and sound in their video production, I have this interactive game called tell me what you see! the only thing is...the is NO VIDEO...only sound!

I play various sounds and various pieces of music and they have to tell me what they see in their heads. They write on a sheet of paper the things that they see from hearing the sounds.

I love this lesson probably more than anything because they actually have to think about what they hear..so they tend to listen harder for little nuances in the music or the sound effect.

I also go into another lesson called tell me what you HEAR...only there is no AUDIO..no SOUND...and the students have to tell me the sounds they "hear" from watching the video

  1. That sounds like a fun lesson. I'd enjoy that. I'm always amazed when I see on TV how people make horse noises with there hands and some house hold items.
