Here's a fun unit plan idea from Karen Randall. At Expo Elementary School, Karen's students made a narrated slideshow as part of a unit on culture. Students went around taking pictures with a digital camera for a couple of days, and documented their lives and interests. Attached below is a planner they used in writing a script for their Scratch slideshow. A project like this would be suitable for upper elementary students and above.
