This video was created to engage students and help them master the K.2 SOL which involves students understanding of the five senses. In this video students learn about different tastes. They are meant to be active participants that help the main character Manuel find food that taste a certain way. I have combined upbeat classical music (Chopin) and colorful images as well as the voice of a child to encourage students to be interested in and engaged by the video.
