The Foranbury Tales

After reading selected tales from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, students wrote their own satires on high school culture. We then spent some time in the computer lab learning Windows Movie Maker. I have posted a video collection of the final product for you to enjoy. Please leave comments below--our class will love to hear what you think.
