| StoryTown Software
With StoryTown software you can create talking, animated stories or
play the ones provided in the program. A great tool to encourage emerging
literacy in reluctant readers.
Choose Teacher, Writer or Player option. Teachers create, edit and assign
stories and write quizzes to test reading comprehension. Writers create and play
stories. Players only play stories and take quizzes. Students can type or record
their answers to quiz questions. These are saved for Teacher review.
To create a story, select a background. Drag on images—size and position them
so they’re just right. Add text, record speech and voila! You’ve got a story!
You can also animate the images with sound effects. Create up to a 40-page book.
Students can play them over and over again. Books can be printed for
off-computer activities.
StoryTown comes with sample books that are ready to play and enjoy.
