Storyboard

This is my storyboard for my Digital Storybook project! The content for my storybook is drawn from the K-6 Language Arts Core Curriculum Standard 1: Objective 2, and Standard 8. I feel that using a digital story would help in teaching this content because it provides a new, interesting way to hear and see language; it provides an additional media through which language can be viewed and presented. Also, viewing certain lines of text along with accompanying dialogue would most likely assist students in identifying simple words, such as the names of the colors. If students had the chance to make a digital storybook themselves it would give them a chance to reflect on different purposes for writing, different possible audiences, as well as practice working on drafts of a project. This project includes a textual, auditory, and visual representation - I feel that the combination of these three would serve to teach this content area because some students will respond better to one representation than another. Hearing words spoken, seeing some of them written out, and then viewing an accompanying picture would, I feel, strengthen the learning experience.
