The web 2.0 tool that I thought would be interesting to use in my class was storybird. This web tool uses real artists’ work to create a story. I’m hoping that the artwork will inspire the students to write in more detail and to think of story ideas. This will make writing fun for my students and I think they would love to share their work.
TPACK: Using this tool during creative writing time would be great for third graders. Some tools online are not easy to navigate, but this is very easy. They just drag and drop pictures and then type. The artwork is detailed and beautiful. The pictures will inspire the students to create a storyline. I have a teacher’s account and can add students to my group. The students could share and talk about their writing.
Standards:
3.5.2 Use varied word choices to make writing interesting.
3.5.2 Write descriptive pieces about people, places, things, or experiences that:
• develop a unified main idea.
• use details to support the main idea.
Below is a storybird I quickly put together for an example for my class. They're fun so you should try them.

I love your story, and I think Storybird is a really neat tool that kids would want to use to create their own stories. Great job :)
