Toontastic, FREE, allows children to create their own story and even publish to YouTube (not required). It includes learning about elements of stories- including the effect music has. Children pick from or make their own settings and characters. Absolutely terrific for RL.K.3!
Puppet Pals, FREE, is another story/play making app. Create or use provided characters, animate and narrate. You can even turn your photos into characters.
Felt Board, $, lets your students create a fun scene using ‘felt’ pieces. Included are parts needed for retelling popular Monkey stories and many more.
This is the first of several posts I'm planning on doing combining CCSS's and apps that help kids meet the goals... if you want more let me know and I'll try to get to it sooner! -Mrs.H
