Story Jumper

Barb Zanella, Grade 1 Northern Bedford County Elementary

//A book publishing program designed for children. It is easy for the children to use and easy to set up, even for the computer illiterate teacher. I find it to be a highly motivating tool for students. //

toc =Getting Started=


 * 1) Create Teacher Account with a classroom - www.storyjumper.com
 * 2) Set up classroom by adding your students - it creates the unique usernames/passwords for all students in the class
 * 3) Print off direction sheets for students to access their account at school and home

=Using it in the Classroom=
 * Using it with students for enrichment and reinforcement
 * Brainstorm, storyboard, write the information in the classroom before going to the computer lab
