Lesson #5: Creating the Second Digital Collage of a Sequence
Computers with AppleWorks and internet access, laptop, printer, projector, scanner; charts with instructions for using the basic tools of AppleWorks
Students will work individually at their computers to create the second of three digital collages. Remind students to pull materials from their folders, refer to their storyboard for ideas, select and add new images brought from home, scan drawings, find images on the internet, or draw directly on the computer.
The final image should be printed out.
Ask for volunteers to show their two digital images together. Ask students to describe the sequence of events seen in the two images.
- What was the most challenging part of creating the second image?
- How did you meet that challenge?
In preparation for creating the last digital collage in this series, students should write a paragraph describing what their third image should look like to complete the narrative. They should include specific objects and images that are needed. If possible, they could bring to class images found on a computer at home, in magazines, or drawn by hand.
