You have learned about the birth and death of stars. Remember that the star life cycle can be thought of like a human life cycle. 

For this project, your task is to write a digital life story of a star. You may choose a low mass or high mass star. You will need the content in nest week's session to complete your story. Last week, you did the following:

1. Choose a low or high mass star. Give him or her a name.

2. Begin writing out some characteristics of your star such as temperature, color, mass, brightness, location on the HR Diagram, OBAFGKM classification and perhaps it's location in the universe.

3. Choose a digital tool in which to write your story. Create a free account and play around with the tool so that you are familiar with how it works. Some options include Storybird, Zooburst or Comic Master.

To finish up this project:

4. Use the characteristics of your star to write a story. Start with the star's birth as a protostar (oh look! so cute!...) to the final death throws. Examples of human life stages might include: 

• Conception

• Funeral home

• Getting a new job

• Fetus

• First ultrasound

• Eating solid food

• Graduation from high school

• Birth of children

• Taking the first step

• Retirement

• Birthday

• ...?

5. Use the digital tool to present your story. Include a picture of the HR Diagram with your star's location labeled clearly.
