Children’s LIVE Online Class:
Let’s Create an Animal Storybook!
Let’s Create a Storybook! is a six-week, bookmaking online course where we will make a storybook using animal characters. Using a step-by-step process, students will:
• Learn how to make hand-made books
• Create a storyline and engaging animal characters
• Learn about composition and layout
• Create a storyboard
• Design and create illustrations for the storybook
• Upon completion of our storybooks, we will have Show and Tell
By the end of class, students will have exercised their creativity and imagination to create their very own animal storybook, plus they will have the skills to create more books in the future. This class is perfect for those who have imaginations that run wild, as well as those who could use a little encouragement in the imagination department.
