Reading Trap #3: One Second Video

1SE is an app that stands for One Second Everyday. The English teacher in me wants to point out the misuse of "everyday," but other than that, I love this app. It is designed to help you store one-second video clips each day for a mashed super-fast look at your life.

But I use it to capture kids as they finish a book. This is, again, a gimmick to celebrate and encourage a climate of book love. As kids finish a book, I grab a quick video, then using the freestyle option on 1SE to mash them together. At the end of each quarter we watch the video together (2 minutes), and I also send it to parents in my weekly email.

Here's a sample of my students' second quarter reading last year. Enjoy!
