Animoto is a fun way to create videos on-line by combing pictures from Facebook, your computer, and other photo apps, with music and background designs. You can try it out for free and create a short 30 second video. If you want to create longer videos, there is a small fee. The process to create a video is very simple. Choose your design, upload photos, decide what order and which photos you would like to add, choose the music (unless it was already chosen with your design), and publish your video for all to enjoy! You can then share the link to your video with others. As an educator, you can sign up for a free edition to create longer videos. To try this out, click here! You can also add students to your account so that they may create videos also. This would be a fun way to get to know your students and their families at the beginning of the school year. It would also be a great visual to introduce concepts or skills. Another idea would be to upload photos of multiplication fact cards to create a video with. Then have your students shout out the answer to each fact card as it appears in the video! I have already created a multiplication video of my own. Check it out by clicking here!
