Creative Challenge: Animated Vocab Cards

The challenge

In this challenge, students pair video, audio, and text to create animated vocab cards that capture both the meaning and essence of a word. You can also compile these videos into a playlist to form a multimedia dictionary based on a common theme or unit of study. Either submit vocab cards or the full playlist by the end of the month for a chance to win prizes!

By combining multiple modes of expression, students make real-world connections to new words, deepening their understanding of language.
