What it is: Boy's Life Magazine is a great place to reach those boys in your class that are reluctant readers or writers.  On the Boy's Life site, you will find a Comic Creator where students can create a Comic strip.  The Comic Creator is easy to use, offering enough tools for boys to really customize their Comics but not SO many that they get lost in the forever search of pictures.  A great balance! How to integrate Comic Creator into the classroom: The Boy's Life Comic Creator is a great little tool to help your boys connect with writing and story telling in a way that they enjoy and understand.  The tool is simple enough to use as a writing station/center on classroom computers.  The Comic does need to be created in one sitting, there is no way to save and come back to a Comic later.  Completed Comics can be printed off and shared.
