Our Response to My Little Cat



This is our first digital story for the year.  It is a class innovation of the Text My Little Cat (a little reader).  This was to show the children our prop boxes, how to set up their photos and how to use a particular app with an ipad to create slides for their own book creations. Students took turns setting up and taking the photos.  There was a lot of discussion.  Students dictated the text and read it for recording (we would usually have a title page).

We talked and wrote about it.
