2. Make a collaborative e-book
You can do this between classes,

circle stories

person or school to continue the
story in the same ‘pad’

7. 3) When the stories come back the
original learner edits it, adds illustrations
and puts it into PowerPoint

8. Possible programmes to use for
illustrations:
• Draw own illustrations in MS Paint.
• Use Bing images for pictures
• Use any illustration programme you might
have
• We used Storymaker 2

9. 4) Each learners reads his/her story into
their PowerPoint

10. 5) Upload these Powerpoint stories to a
free site called Slideboom.com. It will
give you an ‘embed’ code

11. 6) You could embed these
stories in your classroom blog!
7) This is what the story could
sound and look like....
