9. Digital Book Report<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Ever since the first book was written, teachers have assigned book reports to students. This means that Fred Flintstone, Pharaoh, and even your grandparents had to hand in book reports. But the format has changed over the years. Flintstone used slabs of stone, Pharaoh used hieroglyphics on papyrus and your grandparents actually used typewriters to create their book reports. Nothing much has changed over the last few thousand years; book reports all involved inscribing words on a surface<\/em> and having your teacher read it. Snore…how BORING! It’s your turn to take the classic book report to the next level<\/strong>, you can create an animated, DIGITAL BOOK REPORT. Powtoon’s Book Report Template<\/a> guides you, step by step, on how to build a clever and entertaining book report movie!
