I gave them a 4 square template that you can download by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/ComicLife4.zip\">here<\/a>. First we changed the title to say &#8220;More Less&#8221; to practice typing those words.  Then I showed them how to use the &#8220;Capture&#8221; button to turn on the built-in camera.  For the first square, they took pictures of themselves and wrote their names in the speech bubble. Next I told them to collect a certain number (less than 10) of an object.  Some got 8 crayons, others got 5 pairs of scissors, and some got 7 erasers.  It was their choice.  Once they gathered the objects they took a picture of them for the second panel of the comic and wrote the number in the speech bubble.  Finally they figured out how to show 1 more and 1 less of their original number, took those pictures, and completed the speech bubbles with the new number.  For example, if they started with 6 paint brushes, they took a photo of 5 and wrote &#8220;1 less is 5.&#8221;  Take a look at a few student samples: <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/KMoreLess\/Zoey.png\">Zoey<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/KMoreLess\/William.png\">William<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/teachers.henrico.k12.va.us\/staffdev\/clough_d\/ITRTFiles\/45Spring2014\/KMoreLess\/Stephanie.png\">Stephanie<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kindergarten students in Ms. Miller&#8217;s class at Holladay Elementary have been learning how to calculate 1 more and 1 less (SOLK.4b), so today I showed them how to demonstrate their math skills by using Comic Life.
