How to Create Digital Picture Stories for Your classes


One of the best ways to introduce new material or a new lesson/unit in a world language class is through an engaging context, such as a story, a video or a dialog.

In the video below I explain how I make digital stories using Google Slides or PowerPoint and the website: https://www.remove.bg/upload, which I use to remove the background from the pictures I use in my stories.

I search in Google for free clip art, regular pictures and pictures that I take with my phone. I remove the background and I use the objects/characters.

Here is my video tutorial about how I create digital picture stories. 


Here are some examples of lessons with picture stories I have created:
