choose from backgrounds, characters, speech bubbles, sound effects, songs, and more
you can also import your own images and backgrounds
you cannot record sound (voices, talking)
takes a few minutes to figure it out. Then pretty easy to use
if using with students, have them prepare a storyboard
How about creating an animated example of the food chain? Or the rain cycle, using real images? Or maybe record the students singing “I know an old woman who swallowed a fly” and have the students create visuals to go with the song? Or have them create digital stories, or animate their traditional stories? Or perhaps you could do an animated Spelling Bee to help them learn new vocabulary words?
