Today I want to share a really cool storytelling site with you called Storybird. Thanks to Mel Bacon for sharing this with me. This site is awesome. You do have to have an account to create stories with this site but to read the stories that have already been created, it's free. In our district students aren't allowed to have user names and accounts that aren't controlled by the teacher so for us I would suggest using this as a way to help students brainstorm ideas for stories, use it as a discussion for author's purpose or as a whole class create a story together under the teachers account.
Below is a tour of storybird:

How do you see using it in your classroom?
