An App to Animate Objects that is Super Easy for Kids to Use!

I love using this app along with a self-portrait assignment. When kids add their own voices to self-portraits it really brings the images to life. This app works well with a wide variety of kids from children on the spectrum to the precocious overachiever. My only criticism is that when multiple kids are using a single iPad, account it can be hard to deal with the output in an organized way. Also the app is so focused that it can seem limited to kids who are used to more robust tools.

I believe this app is a great way for students to be creative and engaged in storytelling. They can record their own voices and make special effects. That is pretty cool to know they can play around with it. I like the fact students can use it to create, practice, knowledge gain, and for homework. It is a tool where they can play with their imagination and come up with endless stories. Kids will have a fun time customizing their work and being their own creators of storytelling in a unique way. It enhances their learning experiences and knowledge in their overall presentation skills. It can be used in a blended lesson as having it as a tech tool students can use based on a Language Arts lesson. Also, can apply to SAMR in a way it can help transform and enhance the students overall learning experiences.

This tool is really engaging. Even my beginner ELLs were excited to use it and record their voices. I wish you could create student accounts to make viewing their content easier.
