My presentation on Tuesday: Storybird
Since I was not able to use Xtranormal to create the awesome video I had planned to bring Bob Peterson article "Math and Media: Bias Busters" to life, I decided to use Storybird . I used this program once before, so it was not totally unfamiliar. I refreshed my memory and created a story called Math and Media using Storybird. I am sorry to disappoint all the Xtranormal enthusiasts, but Storybird can be used to collaborate and create children's picture books. They even have some great books you can use created by other Storybird members. Storybird is also on twitter so you can keep up with the latest trends in story creations. They also earned a 5 star quality rating an a 3 star learning rating from Common Sense Media . There is a Techtutorial if you are interested in more information in implementing this neat tech tool into your lessons. There is also a You-tube video on how to use Storybird below.

This is intriguing, Pat. I hadn't heard of Storybird before, and I'm looking forward to your presentation, especially since I ask my students to create a children's picture book for one of the courses I teach. I'm also interested in understanding how a math teacher might use this in the classroom...
