This is a very cool tool that could be used for students to creatively apply writing strategies or show understanding of literary elements. The finished products look awesome and would definitely encourage student engagement and effort. There is also the option to share or email stories. The site could be used for varying purposes, subjects, and grade levels.

This website uses a twist to storytelling and sums it up best in their own description: "Storybird reverses the process of visual storytelling by starting with the image and "unlocking" the story inside. Choose an artist or a theme, get inspired, and start writing." It might be just the spark some writers need. I noticed a link to Mother's Day stories. It might be fun to have students write Mother's Day stories and send them via e-mail.

"PrimaryAccess was designed for use in K-12 classrooms to aid in teaching content knowledge, critical thinking skills and even writing or storytelling skills. Teachers can set up and manage class activities and materials with ease using TeacherTools. Students then access the activities using MovieMaker and StoryBoard." This a great site to help students understand primary sources and their importance. This primary source website is an awesome tool for students to apply their knowledge on different topics and also expand that knowledge through the use of primary sources.
