Five photo story: (Example of a 5 photo story about Snow White)
For this assignment work the person/people you took notes with on Tuesday (11/27). If you only worked with a partner you may combine with another group of 2 to create a group of 4.
You need to take five pictures that show the history of the conflict. You may start your story at any point but need to end with today. Each person in the group should post all five pictures on his or her kidblog.
Directions for including photos in your kid blog.
