They started out with a template that you can download by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/KNeedsWants.zip\">here<\/a> and a folder of pictures that you can download by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/KNeedsWantsPics.zip\">here<\/a>. On the first page it says &#8220;I have needs and wants.&#8221;  I showed the students how to take their photo using the built-in camera and type their name in the speech bubble. The next page says &#8220;Needs&#8221; and has four boxes.  I taught them how to use the Finder button in Comic Life to find the folder of pictures I gave them. They had to look at the pictures, identify four examples of needs, and drag them into the boxes.  Most of the students did a great job identifying food, clothing, water, and shelter as needs.  But pizza presented a bit of a dilemma.  Was it a need (food) or a want?  I let them think about that, then we went to the last page, titled &#8220;Wants.&#8221;  They had to drag in four pictures of wants.  Finally, I showed them how to change the style of the pictures and text using the Style button in Comic Life.
