"I divided my 3 classes of grade 7 students into 15 teams and challenged each team to create and present a news item story. This included writing a script and producing a video about their news item. To present their news item videos, each team was further challenged to create a mock news program with news anchors. Green screen technology was used when filming the news anchor's live presentations of the news item videos. Afterwards, student teams were able to insert their chosen images in place of the green screen.

If you don't have time to watch all 15 team presentations, I suggest that you check out these three at least:
