This builds a sense of community and helps students practice active listening and empathy. Start a weekly compliment chain where students are encouraged to sincerely compliment a peer each day. Have students set daily or weekly goals individually or as a class and track progress. For example, students could choose a teamwork goal for group activities. At the end of the week, reflect on progress together. This activity encourages personal responsibility and accountability.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.

Mootion uses AI tools to create video content from your prompts or a completed script. Mootion takes your script of up to 2500 characters and creates a storyboard with images for each paragraph or section of the story. When using a prompt, type in an idea, and Mootion generates a corresponding story. Options include choices of several output languages, style options, and video ratios corresponding to social media options. After adding a prompt or story and making customization choices, click generate to begin the video creation process. You will need to create a free account with Google, Discord, or your email. Each video uses 20 credits; free members receive 200 monthly credits. After generating the video, choose options to regenerate, add assets (your images), animate transitions, or download the video.
