Sock Puppets is a free app that lets you create your own lip-synched videos and share them on Facebook and YouTube. Students can add Puppets, props, scenery, and backgrounds and start creating their own sock puppet.

Sock Puppets lets your younger students create video using sock puppet characters, add settings and props. Student can then record their voice and the characters will lip-synch to create voices for the characters. Students can work together to create multiple characters, adding another way that teachers can have students create thoughtful responses to literature. Videos can be posted to Facebook and Youtube, if desired.

My students have also loved this app! The videos that are created can be saved onto their iPad which is great if they want to go back and view it later. I love how easy it is to move the characaters and change their size. The students really enjoy how their voice is changed when they listen to it. As I mentioned on another site, it is fun for students to use two headphones and a splitter to create their video together. I had one group of students work on creating one in a group of four using a five way splitter. This can also be used for interview each other or made up interviews of characters from literature.
