Toondo


Elite 3 project                                                                                      

In Spanish IV we are studying media vocabulary.  Every year I do a project where they create a newspaper.  The first page has news articles.  The second page they can choose between a sports page, lifestyle page, horoscope, or comic page.  The second page can also be a combination.  They present their newspaper to the class summarizing each article and section.  In years past I have had students just copy a Spanish comic, which was not what I wanted.  This year I told them about toondo.  Many of my students chose to create comic strips and really had fun with it.  I felt it supported my class objective which is to create with the language.

  1. Awesome! How much time in class/outside of class did you allow the students to complete this?
