Photo Story - it's finally here

Thank you Debbie L. for helping me link a quick Photo Story.  I have tried so many times over the last 24 hours to link this example of Photo Story.  The one thing I was doing wrong was not saving it as a 320x240. I have included a link to Photo Story, on how to create one, this link also includes the information on 320x240 (whatever that is), if you follow the instructions it is very easy. 

I think Photo Story is a great tool, especially now that I know how to link it. Typing text, adding music is easy. It is great because it is really easy (trust me it is), the step by step instructions are easy to follow.  Students can take photos of investigations, inventions from first draft to the final piece (science), a drama (The Arts), SOSE explorations and history. They can take photos of group work, showing hands on real life learning.  The students can then timeline the photos and present a Photo Story presentation sharing knowledge with the whole class.

Photo Story can be a little bit different from a PowerPoint. The photos used in this Photo Story are ones I took while I was creating my Visual Art piece for last years elective.
