Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!

The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.

Storyboards, Illustrator and Indesign

All the 6th Grade National Spanish students used Illustrator to create a storyboard about a scene in the novel, El Valle de los Cocuyos. Once they finished their drawings and text, the students imported the Illustrator graphics into a booklet that they had created in Indesign. After formatting the booklet, they printed it out. This took six class periods to complete.
