Fakebook Page

Are you tired of assigning book reports? Looking for something new and different next Fall when students need to share information about a subject? Try this idea - have students create a fakebook page for the person, content or book.

The "Daring Librarian" has a great blog that is definitely worth following. One of the ideas that she shares is fakebook pages. She discusses how she used Comic Life to create fakebook page templates and then laminated them (time in the lab was tight) so students could use overhead pens to fill them in. This would be a great thing to model on your SMART board. What a great idea to link what students know to what they are learning about.

After checking out the fakebook page - I highly recommend you check out the other entries in her blog. She is a middle school librarian that has won awards for her blog. She has some great ideas.

Check out an online version of fakebook - scroll down and click on some of the samples. AMAZING
