The students in Grade 5 took part in a fun project this term. Each student had to create a digital story related to the novel we read in class, "Bud, Not Buddy."
Every student chose their own scene and used the "Storyboard That," site to develop their own comic strip using at least six frames and a few other specifications. Students were able to choose their characters, backgrounds and very detailed features, such as facial expressions, to retell the events of the scene that was chosen.
While the students had an enjoyable time, their reading comprehension skills were also being evaluated!
