My students love using technology to share what they've learned, and they always feel successful using Comic Life . . . me too. Using an easy application like Comic Life helps each student feel successful with his or her finished product because they always look good!
I've also found that my most reluctant writers will work their little fingers to the bone so that they can complete the activity in the computer lab (or on the laptops in our mobile lab). The kids in my room know that they have to have a completed "first draft" of whatever it is we are doing on the computers in order to take part in the technology activity . . . think of it like an "entrance-ticket" as opposed to an "exit-ticket". :0)
This is a template for you and your students to use to create their own book reports/reviews using Comic Life and is modifiable. The template includes areas for showing understanding of : summary, setting, theme, connections (text to text, text to self, etc.), conflict (character vs. nature, etc.), character and student review/opinion.
(** Computers must have Comic Life application installed in order to use this template . . . see my first post to learn more about Comic Life. Note: This template is for MAC USERS ONLY.)
