Tools 5: Laguna Beach

Laguna is about an hour north of Oceanside, a daily drive my mother took everyday to work at Saddleback Hospital. Living the high life with a quiet surf break would be choice for the more sophisticated surfer.


Student-made project for Terrace Humanitarian Expo. Animoto is a great tool for a reflection project, motivational project, or just a quick main idea in science or social studies. My class uses it for book reviews, book talks, and Humanitarian project to showcase their country they "adopted."




Student-made Web 2.0 Tools embedded into an Animoto. Students created TAKS inspirating posters in Big Huge Labs. Students saved their .jeps in their Home drive and upload into Animoto.




Story Jumper
Students created books of fiction as part of our Multi Genre Writing Study. Also, we created Mother's Day Book as a gift for our moms.

Ultimate Race Against Time

Alien Invasion

I Love You, Mom

You are buzzing through the tools. The student work awesome to see!

Thank you! I really want to try the tools out with the students. I can see what bumps I have in the actual projects. Story Jumper tends to not save. When you open a new tab, it "unclogs" it and then can save. Animoto is such a gem. Students love how it looks so professional with less clicks and steps to use.

I like your Story Jumpers...if I have time the last week of school I may let my class use it ...definitely will use it next year.

I really need to chat with you about how to use these tools more! I did my first Animoto presentation to introduce a book, but I only used pictures. I would like to chat with you more about how to add words and how to make changes in the set-up. Do you use the free version? I definitely want to explore this more for next year!

I would love to chat with you about Animoto, help you get an educator's account with more access, and add text. You will love it. You can even get free Animoto stickers for your kiddos!
