During the #JulyiPadChallenge, Wednesdays are devoted to a variety of digital tools that help teachers engage students…ranging from apps that make QR codes, to quizzing apps, to creation tools like the one featured today. Read more about the challenge here.
I’m a fairly late adopter but (now) a true fan of Toontastic, one of several awesome apps by Launchpad Toys. My own kids have had so much fun creating cartoon stories at home this summer, and it’s been a huge hit with grade school teachers who’ve attended my workshops in the past few months. The videos are super easy to save to the camera roll and/or upload to YouTube.
Once you download the free app, you’ll see an option to click a Parent Guide, which I think serves as an excellent explanation and introduction for teachers, too. Read through that guide to learn much more about this cool tool.
Also note that there are awesome educational resources on the Launchpad Toys site here. Several good Toontastic freebies on Teachers Pay Teachers, too; click here.
