Story Board
A story board visually tells the story. A story board is similar to a comic strip, allowing the students to organize their ideas and thoughts in order. Each box on a story board allows for an illustration to be created to describe the audio that will accompany the illustration.

Your story board will include an illustration, voice over and transition that will apply to each slide.

Why Create a Story Board?
It is important to create a story board to allow the writer to organize his or her thoughts. The story board is set up to allow the students to write their stories in the sequence it appears. The story board allows for the students to make their illustration to their audio.

Here is an example of a story board you can use with your students to create their digital story. You may want to photo copy this on to a large piece of paper to ensure that the students have enough room to create their work on.
