Using slideshow to create a book


When I was in fourth grade, I wrote a marvelous little story about a fictional visit to "My Grandmother". I drew the pictures with colored pencils and wrote the text with a pen. I used crayons on purple construction paper to make a book cover, and stapled it all together. I still have a copy of the book. A great deal of our students' work is done with pencil and paper, but that does not mean it cannot become part of their permanent digital portfolio. This recipe will use the Slideshow block to create a digital booklet presenting various math problems that the student has worked on using pencil and paper.

This can be an ongoing project in that all of the images do not need to be taken and uploaded at the start. Instead, the book (slideshow) can be created with a minimal amount of images (even one will do). As new images are taken, they can easily be added to the slideshow.
