In this session we will consider how to use the power of these applications to address literacy and the oral language curriculum. You will explore the packages yourselves, consider how to choose the most appropriate media for a project and develop and produce your own digital story. We will consider publishing your stories and address online safety and security.

This will really get your students creative juices flowing as they try and reconstruct a story, an event in history or a scientific discovery. This workshop will walk you through the process of making 3 simple stopmotion animations: whiteboard/drawn; 2D cardboard cutouts and time lapse.
