ToonDoo!

After reading "Goldilocks and the Three Bears," my students summarized the events of the story because we had just finished learning how to identify the beginning, middle, and ending parts of stories. While using a graphic organizer, the students drew pictures of the beginning, middle and ending of the story. Then, after sharing their work with a partner, I introduced ToonDoo.com, "a cool, comic-creating tool from Jambav, a fun site for kids. Jambav is devoted to creating a unique array of free and customizable online games of educational value for children of all abilities."

After the students became familiar with the website, we collaboratively made a comic strip that represented the beginning, middle and ending or the story. The kids enjoyed picking out the graphics and creating the text! We hope that you enjoy our summary!!!
