Week 2 Thing 5

I absolutely loved this assignment. I haven't spent this much time goofing around on the computer in forever. I think I pretty much sent all of my friends a billboard, trading card, or a comic. How can you stop yourself when it's so hilarious.

There are probably a million ways to use this in the classroom. I love the idea of making a magazine cover for the class. I also thought it would be fun to take pictures from popular children's books and have the kids fill in thinking bubbles for the characters based on information from the story. We have a project coming up where the kids have to interview a family member. Wouldn't it be fun if the kids then made a trading card for that family member as a thank you? It could include some of the information the family member shared only with a super hero twist. I am getting way too excited about this:)
