3rd and 4th Graders Use Narrable to Make an Online Story of Forensic Pieces

The theme for Forensics this year was Change.  With only that theme and their teachers, Mr. Hallagen, Mrs. LaRoque and Ms. Thoni as their guide, the students wrote their own pieces.  After lots of work revising and practicing reading their pieces aloud, the students read them at Forensics in front of a judge.  After all of that work the teachers and I wanted the students to do something special with their writing.  We decided to try a new online tool. Narrable.  Narrable allows students to use pictures and their voice to tell a story.

                                

I showed the students a variety of sites to find copyright free images.  They searched for images that would help tell the story of their piece.  They inserted those pictures into Narrable and then recorded themselves reading their piece.  Below are a couple of examples of the Narrables they created.  Enjoy!
