Excitedly, I entered the class with a new tool up my sleeve for my reluctant writers. Storybird.com. I tease my students that they are going to be famous authors and when asked they will say, they found their love of writing in 2nd Grade.
Yesterday, I set up accounts for all my students. Today when I went to log in... none of my students were there. I couldn't figure out, is this something I am doing wrong or is it just slow to load? Anyway, after re-creating some student accounts, all of a sudden I could see the accounts I created yesterday. Then the avitars wouldn't load. Hmmmm... Has anyone else had issues with Storybird?
Well, I am happy to report that once I did get some of my students onto Storybird.com, they didn't want to stop. There was laughing and crying out, "Look at this!" I hope to continue using story board to teach my second graders the features of short stories.
How do you use Storybird?
Warmly,
Kate
