Community Review for Puppet Pals HD
My Take
The students are fully engaged in this app. They are required to speak and listen to each other. They create stories that are original
How I Use It
I teach tis app as a whole group at the beginning of the year. When I break students into small reading groups during a center their reading group creates and uses puppet pals. I also have them write a paragraph about their story

The movies the students made were so much fun to watch and share with their parents.
