This session will cover what it looks like to use a program called Book Creator with 4th and 5th grade students in a classroom. It will cover the different ways that this program can be utilized (whole group, independent projects, creative writing). It will cover how easy it is for a teacher to create a template for their students to use or how a teacher can allow freedom in choice of how their book may look (creative writing). This interactive session will show how book creator can be used in multiple subject areas as well as provide an opportunity for those attending to see real student examples. Finally, an opportunity to practice around with the program for those who attend the session.
