Welcome to our blog, Grade 7&8! I am looking forward to having a blog and using it as a way to keep in touch and share new ideas as well as share some of the work that we do!  Our first big assignment is going to be to create a "Digital Book."  I have included some links of examples that Mrs. Obach's Grade 1 class did.  I feel like this will be a fun & engaging project as you can make it your own and it can actually be published if you wish!  

There are 3 ways you can make a digital book...

1.  Take your own photos and add the writing.

Is This A Ball?

2.  Draw the pictures and add the text digitally.

The Pigeon Finds A Girlfriend

3.  Use Non-Copyright images you find online and add text.

Is This A Polar Bear?

Take a look at these 3 books and see which one interests you the most.  Remember these are just examples, the story line isn't set in stone.  I want you to pay attention to the way the book looks with the images and text.  Your job is to...
1. Pick one Digital Book and tell me 3 positive things that you notice.
2. Pick a style of book that you would like to create and tell me why. 

You can do this by commenting in the comment section at the bottom!  Have fun :)
