Complete your Dr. Seuss-style poem.
From the START menu, choose the program: Microsoft Publisher. Choose WORD DOCUMENT, and a blank or other template. It will ask you to import a file. Choose the file you wrote.
From the INSERT menu, you will need to insert a # of pages. Cut your poem into parts. Decide how much text is appropriate (make at least 6 or so pages - including a title and end page. Some of you may have more.) Every facing page should have a picture (or you can set your text under a graphic on the same page.) Refer to Dr. Seuss or other children's picture books for an example of this.
Design graphics (either your own using the drawing program, or JPG's from the internet or clipart) that match your text. You will be graded on your layout and design as much as your text.
This weekend, please complete The Witches or James and the Giant Peach. As you read, consider what Roald Dahl is doing to keep the writing fun for himself and his audience. In other words, examine the writing style and learn from him.
