Frames is educational software for stop-motion animation, claymation, and digital storytelling. Frames helps students develop 21st-century communication skills.

This is a superb resource for making 3D storyboards and animations. The programme is a little complicated and is designed to be used by older children. It feels similar to Google SketchUp and it will have your class enthralled for hours with creative writing and animating fun. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Video,+animation,+film+&+Webcams

This site is a collaborative online drawing and animation project from Google and the UK's Tate Modern art gallery. Draw part of a picture and add to other people's creation. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Art%2C+Craft+%26+Design

An online art project developed by Google, this site is a place for digital storytelling through pictures, not words. Students can work collaboratively to create a short animated story, with each animation building off the previous branches. Students can create their own seeds & invite others to grow a tree with them. Before students can create their own seeds, they do have to contribute to an already existing tree. If a student does not feel they can express their words with an animation, think about having the students pair up. Have one student become an author & write an outline of the story, while the other student draws the animation of the story.

Great animations of plain ol' life... this is an awesome- rare site- so please check it out... I think there's something special here!!!

http://www.miniclip.com/sketch-star/en/create/ is good too. v.gd/sketch is a shortcut, if you want to use it. Built-in tutorials are very well done.

A online story making resource where users choose, type, click and drag themselves a story with images and animation to share. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/English

Nice tool but doesn't accept languages other than English. No accent marks, diacritics or non-romance letters. Too bad.

Easy story book creator that shows animated characters. Can be downloaded to pdf format and shared via email. No signup required.

storytelling and singing for pre-k-12

"online tool that lets kids use their imagination and exercise their storytelling powers."

Fantastic indigenous Dream time stories animated. A must see

Very questionable opening content for use with learners in a school

y StoryMaker lets you control characters and objects - and creates sentences for you! Once you are done with your story, you can print it out. You cannot go back and edit a story once you have ended it but, if you click "yes" when asked to share it with others, you can print it out again by entering the magic number it gives you in the box on the right. Since lack of space forces us to delete story files older than 1 month, please save the .pdf file that prints to your own computer.
