1. Tool of the month: Storybird
What is it? Storybird is a visual storytelling community, where you can make, read, and share visual stories. How can you use it? 1. You can find, read and share stories, or create your own stories to introduce a topic or use them as a warmer.
2. Students can read a certain number of stories, as in a reading competition, and share their favourite story with their colleagues.
Check out this Tool of the Month page for more on Storybird and how to use it in the classroom. And remember that they have lots of other free tools you can learn to use here!
