Then, use Buncee to make content come alive
Why use Buncee? Here are five possibilities.
1. Writer’s Workshop: Buncee can be a great way to make writer’s workshop more engaging. Third grade teacher Stephanie Suter details how she transformed her writer’s workshop in this blog post on Buncee’s website.
2. Book Reports: Cynthia Stogdill is a middle school librarian who used Buncee with her sixth graders to create book report presentations based on the novels they were reading. As Cynthia notes in this blog post, the outcome of this project was fantastic.
3. Favorite Character: After reading a book, students can create a Buncee of their favorite character.
4. Author Research: Students of all ages and abilities can easily create a presentation for an author study. Students pull up their Buncee in front of the class to hone public speaking skills, or they can be shared directly to a teacher for grading.
5. Picture Book: Buncee has been used by elementary students to create picture books, and by high school students creating picture books for their younger peers. Whether the Buncees are tales of fiction or nonfiction, the ease of use and accessibility of Buncee make creating the stories fun. Students can practice narration by recording their voice into the Buncee.
