We have done some work already on using Comic Life (on our pc's) and I'd like to send you to have a quick look at Jacqui Sharp's blog post on [|how to make a Comic Life into a slideshow]. I really like the way that Jacqui has filtered the photos and am going to show you that in the next tip. || [|Tip 2: Befunky] This is a site that allows you to manipulate the photo. This is a great tool for giving the children some anonimity. I have made this small Jing on how to change a photo using this site. Follow link to watch[|How_to_change_a_photo_with_BeFunky.com]">here || In the free version of this site, you can make a very funky automated movie of 12 of your pictures, music files are added and it puts it together for you. media type="custom" key="3153976" || [|Tip 4: Slideshare] Put up a powerpoint presentaion on the blog media type="custom" key="3173370" || Here you can make a rolling slide (like the middle/senior blogs have on them at the moment). Or just sharing photos - there are somecool background templates you can use also. media type="custom" key="3173372" || [|Tip 6: Mixbooks] This site is really easy and step by step, I created this sample book and posted it to my blog all within 10 mins. media type="custom" key="3153978" || You can upload a picture and make it into a jigsaw. Great for topic introductions (what are we going to study next?) or words or the week to put together, or from trips. The ideas are endless. Jacqui Sharp has a great tutorial on embedding them [|on her blog here]. media type="custom" key="3637127" ||  ||
