This year I am teaching grade 5 and we are still enjoying the iPads and Ipods. It is incredible how independent these 9 and 10 year olds are with them. I thought grade 2 was impressive!

We have been using the iPads a lot for publishing our writing during Daily 5. Book Creator is an app I discovered recently and we like it a lot. The main difference between this publishing app and Storykit is that when a student is done with their story in Book Creator it can be exported as an iBook and is available for students to read on all our devices. Or, it can be sent by email. In Storykit there wasn’t much to do with it once it was complete.

The students that have used it so far have emailed me photos from home that I have synced onto the iPads for them to insert into their story. Alternatively, photos could be staged by the students, taken with the iPad and then inserted into the story.

The only option Book Creator is missing in my mind is the option to draw illustrations right in the app. This was a feature of Storykit that the children really liked last year. I think I will explore the idea of a doodle app to fill this void! Stay tuned!

A student created video of how to use this app is posted on my class blog.
