 * Community Identity in Coppertown **

==**To get students thinking about community identity we talked about: What special events are celebrated in Coppertown; What features of Coppertown make it different from other communties; and What might attract people to Coppertown. ** ==

Students first focused on the history of Coppertown. Each student created a history timeline. Then s tudents were then arranged into groups depending on what they were interested in. Each group was responsible for completing a commercial or newscast about something in the community. Students wrote scripts, made cue cards and promps, and practiced before using a Flip Camera to record. Check out the recordings below:
