WEATHER PROJECT

WEATHER PROJECT!! DUE 4/17!!!
Pronóstico del tiempo:

Your group will create a 5-7 day weather forecast for a city in a Spanish-speaking country. This needs to be filmed and edited and uploaded to a google drive, shared with me on google, or put on youtube AT LEAST the day before it’s due to make sure it works properly. Here are the steps to making a successful project:

Step 1 – assign roles to everyone in the group, including who will be filming and editing and posting

Step 2 – write a draft of your script for the forecast of the city you chose. Use actual weather conditions for that area (look it up) and remember that their forecasts are likely in Celsius.

Step 3 – film the forecast, doing your best NOT to rely on the script while you film. (i.e,; don’t stare down reading a piece of paper while on film – make cue cards if need be)

Step 4 – edit and post to google docs, share with me, or upload to youtube

example video 2 (good idea, but they have poor pronunciation and grammar)

REQUIREMENTS:

-          5-7 day forecast of actual weather conditions (you need some variety so elaborate a little – not every day is hot and sunny)

-          Needs to be at least 3 minutes in length

-          Those appearing on screen must speak clearly and look at the camera – just like the real news

-          Props and visual aids (a map)

-          Completely in Spanish with correct pronunciation of vocab words

-          Equal participation of all group members

-          Do NOT type a forecast into google translate and hope that it comes out right. USE THE VOCAB FROM CLASS. DO NOT TRY TO GO FROM ENGLISH TO SPANISH --> JUST WORK IN SPANISH!!! IT WILL SOUND BASIC!!!!
