Welcome to Myths and Legends. This site is for pupils, teachers and all those who enjoy stories and storytelling. Make your own animated myths and legends. Really interesting voices and speech capabilities. I can see a range of uses within HSIE
This looks like a great app for creating digital stories on the iPad. It allows you to draw characters or use pre-loaded ones, and then record a voiceover. Has some good reviews, too!
StoryPatch looks like a great app for the iPad for creating digital stories. The app has a library of filtered images for the students to use when creating their stories, and an option to email them once completed.
Simple iphone friendly story telling, location, images and text, quite good for a procedural text or excursion report. Students can collaborate on projects. Really good with mobile technology.
A Tour of Storybird, a great literacy tool. SImple, quick and effective. Look at http://storybird.com/books/the-beach/ for the first attempt by a 5 year old,\nA very nice tool. Currently you are able to publish it to storybird, accept comments but not embed
A very powerful animation tool, very flexible and fully featured. Much steeper learning curve than the other options tagged. Easy to embed or download the result. Top end product, very flexible.
Dvolver creates creativity tools. Have you ever wanted to direct your own movie? No problem. Our MovieMaker helps you make a movie in a few simple steps. When your opus is complete send it to a friend. Or, post it to your website or myspace page. No easy way to download currently but embeds well
A simple story about the beach by Kieran, age 5. Made in StoryBird with a 10 minute limit to learn how to use the application, write a book and read it. (Captured with a screen capture tool) Very nice tool. Currently you only able to publish it to storybird.
My StoryMaker lets you control characters and objects - and creates sentences for you! Once you are done with your story, save it online or print it out in the Library. I really liked the way the story was made and the structure it provided for the students
Create a text based, comic style movie with simple animation. Its very simple, quick and effective. No easy download at this stage or character voices but very easy to use.
