Story Maker characters can now wear masks! Students can use the new design to make stories about their experiences and safety procedures.

What is important to you in student writing?

[StoryMaker @wmStoryMaker]

Communication, both written and oral, are at the core of the Story maker process. It provides an engaging platform where students are excited and motivated to practice written and oral communication. They want to develop these skills.

“Are they hearing a good message from their schools? From their teachers? Somebody who they’ve developed some trust with that they can go to and pose some questions for?” McCoy said. “I’m hoping that educators are embracing that piece, that role of their jobs right now.”

In no other place can a more diverse range of skills and avid exchange of creativity be found than in an animation studio, nor a more rewarding final product than the beautiful animated shorts that students produce. Learn more at https://t.co/DKxTzldvRs
