The 6th grade recently visited the Museum of the Moving Image. This 60 minute tour was led by a Museum Educator and took the students through hands-on exhibits that encouraged them to think about how movies and television shows are made. They visited a new exhibition called “Jim Henson’s Fantastic World” (the creator of the Muppets and known for his work on Sesame Street). Our group also recorded movements in front of a camera and a “flip book”  was made. They did “voice-overs” from the movie “Babe”. They watched a silent film from a movie made over 100 years ago! And laughed it up in the end watching a famous episode called “Job Switching” from the 1952 television series, “I Love Lucy”.

Please see “galleries” for pictures!
