2014 Year 9 Book Trailer Award




It was a great opportunity  for our Year 9's to  showcase their Book Trailers this week when we held our 3rd Gippsland Grammar Book Trailer Award presentation in the Lecture Theatre. The event was hosted by Tyler Smith, our Year 9 cohort's English teacher and all present thoroughly enjoyed watching the sixteen shortlisted book trailers. This year our Deputy Head of Garnsey, Kate Arnup, had the daunting task of judging. With the standard so high Kate's task was certainly stressful  and needed  much deliberation. However after viewing the  shortlisted trailers, Kate was able to announce that the winner of the competition was Jasmine Doultree with "Linked".Jasmine goes into the "hall of fame" and received a $50 book voucher. Receiving the $25 book vouchers for being highly commended were Harley Kerwish with "Attack of Titan"  and Ace Mitrevski with "Zombi B Baby" .Once again this has been a powerful learning experience, allowing our students  to learn many new skills and share their creativity with many others.
All Year 9's are now able to:
  • Engage in independent reading and use critical thinking skills to create a book trailer
  • Use Animoto or Moviemaker as a creative tool
  • Have an understanding of Copyright Law and Creative Commons
  • Find royalty free images and music
  • Create  a Creative Commons Licence
  • Use wikispaces as a platform to upload and share creative work
  • Peer assess and reflect on their learning
