Storybirds

http://storybird.com/ is a great web where you can create short, visual stories and tales. 


In order to create your group storybird, you have to follow the following instructions:


1. Click on the sign up button and fill up the questionnaire. 







In the username you have to write the name of the school (lasallechiclana) your workgroup and your group (e.g. lasallechiclanaprinces2ESOA). Then write the email address of ONE of the members of the group. This member will receive the confirmation email, which you have to open and click on the link to confirm your account. 






2. Now you can start creating your story. Click on the Create button. 




First you are going to choose the style of the pictures, so click on See more art

 
If you don't like any of the artists, just click on the reload button, and the images will change. 


 
When you like one, just click on the picture and then on Start a Storybird with this art.





3. Now you will find the screen where you are going to create your story. You can add or remove pages, choose the pictures you like and place it on the page and write your text. Don't worry. Today you don't have to create a story, just experiment with the page. You will have to make a cover with a title. Then make four pages, each with an image you like and a sentence that describes it. It isn't important if it doesn't have any sense. The important thing is that you create it.





When your story is completely finished, you can publish it on the web, so everybody (including myself) can read it! To do that, click on the top right button (Menu), and then on Publish this story. 


I hope you liked it... next time we will try a real tale for real children!
