Using the Book Creator app for Retelling a Story!

Book Creator 

$4.99 in the iTunes App Store

One great way to do retells of the stories you are reading in class is to use Book Creator. It is easy to use and creates a great finished piece.

The first step is to take the photos. I use the retell, sequencing cards that are part of our reading series. But you could also just use pictures from the story. Students can go to the camera app and take four photos from beginning to end. (They do not have to be perfect pictures...it's the process that is most important!)

Open the Book Creator App. Use the + button to add pictures and text. See the video below. ENJOY!
