Media Presentation




This video was created to show students in the elementary grades about cultures and traditions. In the younger grades there is a big emphasis on culture and how every culture has its own traditions and are from different parts of the world. In order to show my students an example of culture .... I made a video on the culture here at UT. A lot of my students have attended sporting events at UT or have had some experience on campus. Showing them the traditions of the UT culture will give students a first hand example of how different cultures hold traditions near and dear to their hearts. It will also show students how traditions are carried on throughout the years and are meant to be kept alive. I thought this would also give students an insight to my life and cultural experience at UT. I bleed orange and would not have it any other way and I want my students to see the passion and I love I have for my university. Enjoy!!!!

  3. You are recruiting the little people already!
    I also like the song and how everything moved along quickly. The text was hard to read a couple of times, but I thought this was well put together.

  5. Wow! I love this! I think that your students will really enjoy it. I know I did. UT and VOLS are such a big part of a culture here in Knoxville. I think it is great that you worked with this culture.

  8. Seriously, the Rock is painted 6 times per day? I would have guessed 2 times per day, 3 times at the most! When I was in the 2nd grade, my teacher had each of us put together a "Tennessee Box" full of items that represented our culture. I suspect that in the near future, little ones will be creating Tennessee videos. Thanks for capturing the joy of the UT community. It made me reminisce about my undergraduate days.
