Today, students in Ms. Long&#8217;s class created comics to show their own elapsed time math problems. First we discussed different situations that take several hours, like a sports game, a special event, or traveling. Each student thought of an idea, then we opened a 3-panel comic in <a href=\"http:\/\/storyboardthat.com\">StoryboardThat<\/a>. I showed them how to add a background scene to each frame and how to use the &#8220;Edit Scene&#8221; button to change things in the background. Next we added characters, customized their hair and skin colors, and changed their poses and facial expressions with the &#8220;Edit Pose&#8221; button. Finally we added speech bubbles to each frame: the first one told the starting time, the second one told either the ending time or the duration (like 2 hours), and the last one asked a question about the elapsed time. We took a screenshot of our comics and posted them to Google classroom. Students answered each others&#8217; questions in the comments. You can see all their comics <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/0BykgMgzq4lmwTlZqYVY0M2lXZHM?usp=sharing\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Third graders at Varina Elementary have been learning about elapsed time in one-hour increments (SOL3.11b).
