Evaluation: Animoto is a great website to use for post reading lessons. It's easy to use, free, and much better than a boring writing assignment. It actually engages students by allowing them to pick apart the book more in depth. They get to choose what pictures/texts most interest them.

It could be an animoto video based on a character, theme, setting, plot, etc. The possibilities are endless. You can also choose the background music for the video and create captions with your pictures. You can upload pictures from your desktop ora social media, which makes it even easier for young students today.

This is a wonderful alternative to the typical post reading assignments like plot worksheets or response papers. This is an interactive activity that can be shared with classmates. You could do it with a partner, group, or by yourself. it's a great learning tool as well as fun for students.
