Sisters are Forever. on PhotoPeach
I enjoyed learning about this technology. I think this would be a great tool to use in the classroom for students of all ages. I chose to base this "lesson" around poetry. Students could either find a poem or write their own poem and then find visual clips that accompany the poem to tell the story. This is a great way for students to use their creativity. When thinking of ideas, I also thought of using this tool to learn more about your students. You could have the students compose an "About me" digital story where they could talk about their family and where they're from- the possibilities are endless.
As a teacher, I could teach a lesson with the information embedded in the digital story. The combination of the visual and audio will help students of all learning style.
I really have nothing negative to say about this program and my experience creating my story. The uploads were fast and easy and everything on the site was easy to comprehend and navigate. I will definitely be using this program in my teaching.
Your digital story is so touching and well done! From a girl who only has 3 brothers, I have to say I am envious of the close bond you and your sisters share.
ReplyDeleteDigital stories are a creative way for student's to express themselves. There are many things you could use digital stories for. I believe that even your kindergarten student's could even produce an amazing digital story. In an ideal environment each student could be responsible for one slide and you could work one on one with that student to create their slide. The end result would be something pretty memorable from that particular school year.
I absolutely love your digital story! It is adorable. I have just one sister and I know how strong that bond can be. I also love creating digital stories. I was at first intimidated by them and thought they would be so difficult to create. With the right program digital stories can be easy to make and very powerful, just as yours was!
