Book Creator & Drawing Pad

Grade 3 Digital Authors & Illustrators in the House!

Students in Mrs. Coates's and Mrs. Guido's third grade class recently spent time learning to use two iPad apps:  Book Creator and Drawing Pad. They used Book Creator to write digital "How To" stories and then used Drawing Pad to create illustrations to go along with their instructions.  They "app smashed" the two apps together to come up with a finished book.

Completed work has been sent to their editors (Mrs. Coates & Mrs. Guido) for review.
Be on the lookout in the next few weeks for these published masterpieces!
