Using photostory in the classroom
If you haven’t come across Microsoft Photostory, then read on.
It is a very simple and free piece of software that takes your digital still pictures and allows you to have some movement, zooming in and out, as well as adding music or narration.
The end result is a video that can be viewed on Media Player
It truly is an excellent motivation and presentation tool
Stretton Handley Primary School, inspired by photographs they saw of winter scenes, used PhotoStory to create winter poems.

Staffordshire ICT have put together a help sheet for pupils using PhotoStory. It includes an assessment chart at the end.
There are some useful tips too on the following website:
