Mixbook--Online scrapbooking tool for photos, writing samples etc....

L.R. and I are currently using this site with our language arts group to create individual student poetry books. Throughout the school year students were required to create several poems relating to topics covered in class. The poems were very creative, and we felt it would be great for students to publish their work for family and friends to enjoy. Through use of the mixbook website, students are creating an online book by typing up their poems, selecting backgrounds, adding clipart etc... Once completed students can view the online book from any computer or ipad by signing into their personal accounts. Families can also decide if they would like to purchase the final product.


 * We did have parents sign a permission slip in order for students to create a Mixbook account. If students did not gain permission for the project, they created a poetry book on Microsoft Word.
