Create a digital story that models what you would ask of your students using any of the digital storytelling tools listed below and post it to your personal website. Add a description of how you will use this story. This would be a good time to create something related to your classroom curriculum depending on what grade level you teach. Digital storytelling is an excellent way to integrating technology in your instruction as well. The tools listed below are not listed in any specific order or priority but some of them are geared more for the elementary or upper levels. Please find a tool that works for you and your computer! If you find difficulty posting your digital story to your website, please email me ASAP and I will help you through it.
