The script of Pinky & Stripey working on a subtraction problem.
...and now for the video.
Imaged based story project
A short video with facts about Abraham Lincoln and his birthplace in Kentucky.
The Video..
Animated Digital Storytelling vs. Image Based Digital Story Projects
Teacher created
1. Explaining the steps of a math problem
2. Introducing a historical figure
3. Using the puppets to explain a social situation (conflict resolution)
Student created
1. Animating a personal narrative with dialogue.
2. Building better sentences; using photos to add adjectives to a sentence
I think my students would be able to make any of the projects I listed under the teacher created ideas. If given a choice, I think younger students would be more interested in using the puppet apps. My son (also a 2nd grader) loves to use Toontastic. He couldn't wait to try Sock Puppets. I think older students would enjoy using the Sock Puppets app, but I feel their curriculum would easily support the image based apps. They would also be able to search more effectively for photos that are appropriate and acceptable to use. I think teaching fiction would be easier with the sock puppets and nonfiction would suit the image based apps.
