There are lots of cool projects that you can do. Fourth grade students at Chamberlayne Elementary School made online comic books today.  Pairs chose an object in the solar system to research.  I have created a site of kid-friendly links for learning more about the solar system <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/SolarSystem\/Links.html\">here<\/a>. I also made a quick Keynote animation <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/40Fall2011\/4thSolarSystem.mov\">here<\/a>. Then I showed them how to create a page in Comic Life.  I gave them a <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/40Fall2011\/4thSolarSystem.zip\">template<\/a> and a <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/40Fall2011\/SolarSystemPics.zip\">folder of pictures<\/a> to use that you can download by clicking the links. They created their comic, then I combined all of them into a Pages document, saved it as a PDF (go to File > Print > Save As PDF), and uploaded it to <a href=\"http:\/\/youblisher.com\" target=\"_blank\">Youblisher<\/a> which automatically turns it into a cool flip book!
