8 Superheroes Online
Grade: 9
Superman, watch out...Library Man may be the next youth icon!  This project invites students to invent, draw (using the computer), and write a descriptive paragraph about a new superhero.  The description (only) is then e-mailed to students at partner schools.  The recipients use the description as a guide as they attempt to recreate the superhero in a computer-drawing program (like Microsoft Paintbrush or Adobe).   The originals and the re-draws are compared.  Of course, the better the originator writes, the better the final outcome.
