Tellagami - Free or upgrade to Tellagami EDU $4.99 (sadly, this app is not compatible with the new IOS (11+) )
Tellagami, a free iOS app that lets you create short (30 seconds) animated movies called "Gamis," and thanks to a fellow teacher, is now one of my new favorite animation apps! It's a fun tool to use with students. Challenge them to recreate a moment....make that half a moment in history.

Some quick ideas you might try:
- Have your character tell a story.
- Pick a person in history and have them introduce themselves
- Use an animal as a background and have the student (avatar) describe some of its physical adaptations.
- Recite a famous poem or speech
- Read a poem they wrote
- Have students recap a part of their field trip in groups, then load all of the short clips into one movie using animoto or movie maker.
