Following the program at Hog Island the school children on Chebeague created their own Atlantic Puffin Movie
ATLANTIC PUFFINS

In the spring of 2014 our Chebeague Island School k-2nd grade class produced a movie about the Birds of Chebeague using green screen I promised to share:

Birds of Chebeague

In the fall of 2014 the Pre-K - 2nd graders produced a movie about migrating birds:

Migrating Birds of Chebeague

This Fall the 3-5 grade class will be studying 6 different seabirds including the Puffin and will be producing and creating six short video with the Pre-k - 2nd graders as the birds. We will be using Seabird Sues Puffin costume ideas and are looking forward to sharing our new movies.
