Morfo is a free app where you can take a picture of a person (or animal) and create a 3-D character. You can record a message and your character says it for you! You can also save the character as a video in your camera roll to share with others. This app is easy to use and is an unique way to share information.
In the free version (there is a paid version for $0.99), you can record a message up to 30 seconds long.
Classroom Applications:
* Students can morph a famous figure in history or authors and can give a research report about them.
* Students can create a booktalk using a morphed character of their choosing.
* Students can record a book summary in a cool, new way.
I am excited to try this app in our counseling program. The other counselor and I have made videos this year that we send a link home to the parents and they are able to watch the link with their child. The first ones we have done were for the 5th grade parents and students that are going to the Middle School next year. I think this app would be great to use to add a creative twist to the links so the parents dont have to look at our faces every time.:) This would also be a great app to send messages to our different classes to get them excited about an upcoming lesson FUN!!!
