Presentation and Assignment Tools
Imagine.....students creating presentations and assignments different from the regular pencil and paper or construction paper tasks! There's a novel idea! We have begun to veer away from the traditional book report. Now students can create a comic or a Bitstrip, depicting characters and recreating events from the story. They could even record their spoken narrative of the story using VoiceThread or Audacity.
