Repte 16: Create your comic strip!

Hello everyone!

Here you have the 3rd English challenge. Are you ready?

The activity consists of creating a COMIC STRIP (of more or less 6 vignettes) telling your DAILY ROUTINE or THE THINGS YOU ARE DOING during the Quarantine.

• You can practise the use of the Present Simple Tense (daily routine) or the Present Continuous (things you are doing in this moment).
• You can write sentences about you (1st person: I get up at… / I am reading) or about a friend, your mum, your dad… (3rd person: He/She gets up at… / He/She is reading).

Look at the examples below:

*Example 1: Present simple (daily routine):

*Example 2: Present continuous (things you are doing NOW / in this moment):

 To create the comic you need to go to www.storyboardthat.com and register (log in > register > username / e-mail / password > sign up):

 Click on: “create a storyboard”

Choose the Layout (Diseño). Example 1 is “Celda y Descripción“. Example 2 is “Sólo Celda“.

Choose the background (“Escenas”), characters (“Caracteres”), text bubbles (“Ables texto”) and objects.
To search for an object you need to write the word in English (for example: car / beach…).

Instructions to FINISH your comic strip:

1st step – “Salvar”

2nd step – “Guardar la salida”

3rd step – “Botón derecho – guardar imagen como… (png image)”
