Animoto is a creative way to share videos, music, photos, and presentations and turn them into videos.

Ashley, Animato is a great way to make and share a video in a short period of time. I have used Animato with students and they love the ease of program. I used this with HS students, but I know that our grade school teachers have used it as young as fourth grade. Great program - Thanks

This amazing new tool (new to me at least) allows you to create a short story and set it to music using the Google Docs interface. When you are done it creates a short link to share out to all your family and friends. This has amazing implications in education and technology for use as a quick check for understanding, overview video, formative assignment, or quick creative writing assignments.

This looks like exactly what I would like to try with my students to get them doing some collaborative story writing! I would use this for creative story writing, research, and as a planning tool in 3rd grade.

This would be a cool idea in the classroom for sure!!!! Perhaps, they can collaborate and create their story before making a video or presentation - which could also be created collaboratively.

It's always great to have sources for free sound effects and music.

I agree that this could be used in the future classroom because I could use songs to get my students engaged in my lessons. I could download a song with lyrics that have the concepts of one of the units we are currently working on. I also think this is strictly for teacher use because they are the ones presenting it to the students in order to get them engaged. I have never heard of any other resource close to this!

PhotoPeach is a free online tools that allows the use of images, text, and music. PhotoPeach is an excellent tool for storytelling.
