I am so glad I decided to do the digital storytelling project with my students this week. It was a great way to keep them engaged while others in the class were wrapping up their reading projects! I decided to use the tall tale of Paul Bunyan. I retyped the story and read it, as a whole, to the class. I decided that if the students saw the pictures in the book I had, many of them would want to copy them and I wanted the students to use their imaginations for their drawings. About half of my students are finished drawing and a handful decided to make pictures on Microsoft Paint. I am hoping that by the end of the week, the rest of the students will finish their illustrations. Also, I am going to try to start voice recordings this week so I can have a final project one week from now. I am excited to see how the final product turns out!
