Comic Book Report (to be discussed Tuesday, March 17)

Comic Book Report Instructions (Due April 10):

Select a book from a narrative genre that you have not read about from the Reading Wheel.  Then, create cartoons on the ComicBook App using the following guidelines:

1:  Create a series of at least six drawings or photos in six squares that shows the most significant events in the novel.

2:  You may draw pictures to put into ComicBook, or take photos with the camera.  (Just be sure that you use costumes/props to depict the setting if you use photos!)

3:  When you are done, please share the Comic with both Miss Jezabel and Miss Hodges on the Google Drive by putting it in the shared folder, “Book Report Comics.”

4:  Be ready to present your book comic to the class, explaining exactly why you selected each image.  (In other words, be ready to introduce the characters and setting, and to summarize the book’s important events in the beginning, middle, and end!)
