We loved using 'Little Bird Tales' today

I heard about Little Bird Tales from my PLN (Personal Learning network) and because everyone has been raving about it, I decided to try it out with the Grade 3s today. It was wonderful! I gave them the topic of 'My holiday news' and they first created five pictures about their holiday in Storybook Weaver and saved them as jpegs. Then we went to Little Bird Tales and added the pictures one by one with a sentence or two about each picture. The class loved the experience. WE didn't get as far as narration - that is for another time!

Please click on the actual pictures of the story below.
