Adobe Voice App Task Challenge
The prizes are piling up! No winners for Show Me or Thing Link, both of which are awesome, versatile apps. Learning to use them will open the door to a variety of instructional possibilities. Complete the challenges over break and claim the prize! Remember that I have 4 iPads that you are welcome to use for classroom activities.
This week I am highlighting Adobe Voice. This is a free app that allows students to narrate a story over a variety of digital images. They are designed to be 60-90 seconds in length. Students record their voice and then choose the image they want to display while their voice recording is played. Awesome for ALL kids with endless possibilities, but another way to work on oral language with ELL students.
Find a quick intro here and a second grade example and kindergarten example.
Here is the link to the challenge.
