App of the Week: Story Creator - Easy Story Book Maker for Kids. Parents and teachers can use this app to introduce unfamiliar settings like going to a doctor or traveling on an airplane. Once a photo is added, creators add a caption and either record the phrase or rely on text to speech. There are also drawing tools to doctor the photos if desired. During playback the words are highlighted as spoken which helps immeasurably with early literacy. Even better than sharing social stories is the ability for even young students to create their own presentations. Whether retelling a favorite fairy tale or doing a full-scale “oral” report, the simplicity makes participation possible for even those with severely limited verbal skills. Price: Free Device: iPad
