FREE App Find - Toontastic Storytelling App
Teachers - I would highly recommend checking out Toontastic if you are looking for an app for students to tell their stories. It is a free Google product, and works on most mobile devices.
From the site:
"Toontastic 3D is a playful storytelling app that scaffolds the creative writing process and empowers kids to create their own animated cartoons. While Toontastic was not specifically designed for schools, we have heard from a lot of educators over the years that they love how the app sparks their students’ imaginations and uses the Story Arc to help frame their writing. Their students use the app for creating everything from book reports to news broadcasts and foreign language skills."
Best of all are the following features of it:
- Kids do NOT need accounts
- Stories are stored locally
- There are NO ads or in-app purchases - you get the full app for free
- It works offline, so your younger kiddos can use it without being connected to the Internet
