This week we are working on www.storyboardthat.com, and the students are loving it. I would like to offer this as a book report option for the remainder of the year and have it available for other projects as well. The price of continuing to use the site past the 2 week free trial is $90 for one year. If anyone knows of a business that would be willing to sponsor this purchase for our class before I pound the pavement asking, let me know. I also considered everyone to bringing $1 to cover the cost. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance for your input. Below is an example of what can be created with the program. (Thanks also for voting yes on our last bond election! Funds from that election purchased our laptops. WE ARE LOVING THEM! It's great to have a such a supportive community. )
