Flying Creek Comic Strip Assignment

Task:

• Using the Flying Creek photos, create a comic strip (using Comic Life) that represents the diversity of life you observed at Flying Creek.  Your goal is to use the comic strip to demonstrate what you learned during the day, including at least one living thing for each ecosystem and six or more living things overall.  Make sure that you include the appropriate titles for each ecosystem (grasslands, woodlands, riparian, aquatic).  To show deep understanding, also include the categories for organisms (producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, scavengers/decomposers).

Must Haves: 

• There is a title.
• There are captions for each photo describing the learning.
• Each ecosystem is represented in the comic strip, and there are at least 6 living things shown overall.

Criteria:

• The writing on the comic strip is free of spelling and grammatical errors.  It is well-written and shows proof of editing.
• The layout of the comic strip is a creative, well-thought out design.
• The comic strip shows deep understanding of the diversity of life in ecosystems at Flying Creek.
