Digital Storytelling

This is the first time that I have created a digital story.  I plan to use this as a way to introduce personal narratives to my class.  I will also provide a link to this on my website for parents to access.  In addition to students drafting a personal narrative, I plan to have an enrichment group use a digital storytelling tool to create their own project.

  1. Your students should love this video. It can also help them with narrative story telling, and it can provoke a discussion about what pets they have and taking care of pets. The story also has a good amount of suspense, so you can talk with the students about how to build suspense in a story. I sure wish schools provided more access to tech for students to create digital stories. The resources are a powerful means for building literacy skills, given writing, speaking, and visuals are all involved, as well as learning about the characteristics and elements that make for an engaging story, such as yours. Thanks for sharing.

  2. Great video I'm sure your students will love hearing about a special time in your life and will encourage them to do the same. Your transitions were very smooth. Nice job!
