Story Me App

Story Me is an app that allows you to take photos and create a collage, comic strip, and/or cartoon with them. You can add captions, thought, or speech bubbles to add content to the final product. There are 81 different layouts you can choose from when deciding how you want your story to look. You can also change the effect of your story by choosing an effect to add to the overall look (cartoon, pencil, or plain). When you have completed your storyboard, you can share it easily by emailing it, printing it, or even saving it to your Camera Roll. This app is currently free in the iTunes app store.


Here is an example of what one of the finished stories might look like from your classroom:



Classroom Applications:
*Students can highlight an historical figure's key accomplishments from a particular time period (ex. Paul Revere's role before, during, and after the American Revolution)
*Sequencing a story read
*Showing first person point of view of a character in a literacy group
*Students can draw their own pictures, use the iPad camera to take photos of their own work and use those pictures in the creation of their project. (No copyright issues!)
