Have you tried out the Newspaper Generator from
fodey.com? I recently discovered it, and think it could certainly find a place in the classroom. You just go to their website, click on newspaper generator, and start typing. When you are finished you just click on download, then decide where you want to save it. It will be saved as a JPG image similar to the one you see above.
The newspaper generator could be used to introduce a new topic to students. Everything just looks so official when it is in print! I am going to use my example above in a training I am doing for teachers on iMovie. I just thought it would be a fun way to introduce the topic. Can you think of other ways you could use the newspaper generator?
This is so cool! Thank you so much for posting :) Can't wait to try it out with a 4th grade class next week :)

Hi Julie! I'm glad you like the newspaper generator. I would love to hear how you use it in your class! Be sure to share!
DeleteMy third grade students are writing spooky stories. How fun would it be to publish them in this format?! It would look like a real reporting of a spooky happening! What a great lesson on point of view as well!! Thank you for posting!
ReplyDeleteStephanie, that would be a really fun way to use the newspaper generator. Good idea!
