Desktop+Publishing

Desktop publishing is a broad category of creation of printed material. What are class did for desktop publishing was create a three-fold brochure. I would use desktop publishing all the time in my classroom. Three-fold brochures would be a great project for my students to present information on a topic like the two one this page. THey would also be great to give to parents explain what we are doing in class or to explain an upcoming field trip.

Articles @http://desktoppub.about.com/od/lessonplans/a/lessonplans.htm The thing that I like most about this website is is mentions that desktop publishing is one of the easiest and cheapest way to incorporate technology in a classroom. It then also gives some lesson plans that teachers could use in their classrooms.

Examples of three-fold brochures



Lesson Plan Students will create a three-fold brochure about cloud types. The inside of the brochure should explain the three different types of clouds and include a picture. Students will also list some traits about each cloud too. The Back page need to have a list of any resources that they used. The last page is student choice on the information that display. There is a sample below and a rubric attached. Have Fun!
