5M reporting on Albert Einstein

3/9/2013

Last week, we were just getting stuck into a science lesson with Miss Power, when her plans went out the window. We were supposed to be watching a video about Albert Einstein to help us learn more about him. Unfortunately the video wouldn't play, but we had a synopsis of the information that was meant to be covered in the video.

It was great that Miss Power's plans went out the window, because what we ended up doing was much more fun! Using the synopsis of what was meant to be in HER video, we got into groups and spent some time developing our research skills as WE found out the details about Albert Einstein's life by researching.

Here is the final product of a hard day's work. We worked in teams, we learnt new research skills such as using the advanced search tools on Google, we created and used cue cards (which are different to scripts), and we faced the dreaded fear of speaking in front of a video camera. We hope you enjoy our video and that you learn something new about this interesting scientist!

I enjoyed doing this movie, I learnt that e=mc2 is way to calculate energy I also liked how Julia kept trying and finally succeeded.

What was Albert Einstein job in building the atomic bomb.

Hi 5M I learnt that albert Einstein had a sister.
I think Josh did well by remembering his line.
one thing I could improve on is remembering my line.
I thing Julia did well by not giving up.

When finding information for this video I learnt about the Manhattan Project. Which I talked about in this video.
It was funny that when I was practising I kept on stuffing up and then when it was my turn to talk I said it all fine.
I could improve on keeping eye contact, it was just hard to remember and so I kept looking away trying to do so.
I liked how Julia in the end finally got it right, you can see by the bloopers that she had a really hard time.

I learnt from the video that albert Einstein that he did a mad hatten project. And I also learnt that Albert was born and died. And the funniest part is the bloopers.

1. I learnt that I can speak in front of a camera.
2. I think that I did a good job with the research.
3. I think I need to improve on my voice level.
4. The rest of the class did a great job, with a truckload of information.

How did you manage to get all of the screw-ups after the good part?

I learnt from this video clip that I know when Albert was born and when he died.
The bloopers was really funny ,I loved the video clip.
I also learnt any of the teacher did not like him.

Hi Miss Power,
Wow! I really enjoyed this! From this I learnt that that Elbert Einstein
was born in 1879 and died in 1955. I think that I research really well in this activity, but on the other hand I could speak a bit louder so that's something I could improve on. I believe that Joshua did a good job with his researching on the Manhattan project.

WOW!!!
I really like the video because I never knew that Albert Einstein was born in 1879 and how everyone did a good job in the video. I think everyone did a good job in there research and there was a lot of information!

Hello Miss Power,
something in the video that I learnt was that Albert Einstein won the Nobel prize for physics. Something that I did well was that I managed to get some research done. Something that I could improve on is to speak loud and to look at the camera. Something that I learnt from someone else was that Albert Einstein was born in 1879.

Hello, Miss Power and 5M

From watching this video about Albert Einstein, I learnt that he started his career in 1890 and I also learnt that he could not get a job after college. I liked the way how Julia smiled while she was saying information about Einstein. I really enjoyed the video.

Bye, Roslind P

Hi,
I learnt that Albert Einstein was born in 1979 & died in 1955.
I think that something I did well was when I finally finished my recording.
something I could improve on is the speed of my voice.
I liked the way Keily used her voice

Hi Miss Power
I thought that the whole class did a good job because they all explained what albert liked or did or studied even his hobbies in his spare time

Hi Miss Power, this was a great video and I learnt that in Albert Einstein's school his teachers did not like him very much. I think Paolo did well and he spoke clearly.

Hi Miss Power,
I learnt e- energy m-mass and c-speed of light .
I think that everyone did really well.
