Using Storyboard that in the classroom
StoryboardThat is a website that lets kids create storyboards for learning or fun. Kids can fill panels with images from an image bank before dragging and dropping characters and props into the scenes. From there, they'll add text to dialogue bubbles or anywhere they please. Once they've completed a storyboard, kids can save it to their account and return to it later or save to a computer as a PowerPoint file.

As "an innovative way to describe ideas and processes," StoryboardThat can be used by kids for many purposes. From plotting out kid-made films to recreating a historical event, kids can use words and pictures to express themselves. The drag-and-drop interface should be easy for your students to figure out, and the program is simple and satisfying. Older kids can create more complex boards with layered images, while young ones can simply have fun experimenting with the kooky characters.

Learn how to make digital comics with Storyboard That! in this education technology tutorial. Sam Kary teaches you everything you need to know about how to integrate digital comics into your curriculum, how to set students up for success with comic creation, and how to encourage creativity with customized digital comics.
Visit The New EdTech Classroom for additional resources for creating digital comics with students:
Students can create digital comics to practice synthesizing information, summarizing, visualizing what they’ve read, creating dialogue, and sequencing a narrative. I primarily use comics for three purposes: to summarize a book or a story using the plot diagram, to create timelines, or to create a comic to demonstrate understanding of a topic. (Sam Kary)
