Exciting Story Creation App

How I Use It

My students use Toontastic to create a variety of projects. We use it for story creation but also for showing understanding of different content. For example, my students often use Toontastic to demonstrate knowledge at the end of a science or social studies unit or to "teach" someone else about school rule. We have the paid version. It is pricey, but there is a lot in the app and my students never tire of it. It works well to sometimes create a short project with just a single scene and pre-created characters. We have also had success with 5 scene projects in which students create and add their own characters. The only downside to the latter is that I have to allow plenty of time. The interface is easy to use and there are very few words so early readers and ELL students can access it successfully. The creativity factor is fantastic.
