Where do you come from?
Digital Storytelling Project
Directions: Our first digital storytelling project this year will be to learn more about where our
families are from. Please help your student fill out the information on this sheet so that they
can use it for their digital story, or DS. If there is something that you are not sure of, feel
free to leave it blank and your student can work around it. Keep in mind that your student
will be bringing home their flash drive on Friday to download pictures for their DS. These can
be photographs of family members, pictures from the internet, or drawings that your student
has made of his/her family. If you are unable to download pictures you can send them in a
ziplock bag to school, and I will make sure they are returned to you in the same condition.
