Hi Yr7,
The secret to a good film is to PREPARE well. If you are prepared then everyone is clear on what needs to happen to get the project done.
Go HERE to get a copy of the FreeMind file that you need to fill out before you start filming.
Have a musical day :-)
That very day two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem, and they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened. LUKE 24:13-14

Welcome.
WELCOME students of Emmaus.
You now have your very own music blog.
The idea of this blog is to create a resource site for you to look at/use/ post work to so that other students from Emmaus (and other schools) can follow on your class discussions and work.
In the next lesson all yr9 students will be posting a comment somewhere here so i can make you administrators of the blog and so you can add content to the site.
Good Luck
