This is my cartoon in ToonDoo representing the gist in English of a short story my students read in Spanish 102. It is a very user friendly tool.

Wonderful idea to use comics to review short stories. Students really enjoy creating their comic using Toondoo. It??s the best comic according to my students.
Toondoo wins with my students, too. I think that the limits of having to express the gist of a story with only the characters, objects, and scenes available in the comic maker would be a great thinking challenge for students. They’d really have to think about the meaning when creating a way to represent it. Nice activity!
