5th Grade Book Trailer Winners



Let’s celebrate our budding film producers here at Olive! All of our fifth graders participated in the District 25 Film Festival. Fifth graders across the district have been working hard this past month to create book trailers to advertise their favorite books.  They have been finding photos, writing text, and matching music to the theme of their books. Once the trailers were finished, they were submitted to the judges. The first step was to get chosen by the fifth graders at another school. Our partner school was Dryden. The fifth graders at Dryden chose the top 3 from each Olive class.  Those top 3 went on to the second step.  A committee of LMC directors chose the top video for the class.  The winning video in each fifth grade class was sent to the district office where a team of administrators watched the videos and chose the best 3 to represent the district.  We are so excited that one of the top 3 videos for the entire district was submitted by Olive fifth grader, Delaney M! Congratulations!
