I am spending a lot of the summer research web 2.0 sites to use in the classroom. There are so many possibilities! One site I have found that is fun is by Pixton . It creates easy to make cartoons and cartoon figures that move and are fully customizable. I made an avatar for fun to see if I can get it to look like me. I wasn't successful in showing my age - but that was okay with me! I like the younger version of me! As you can see, you can also use photo backgrounds...or a pixton created background. I imagine this would be a great tool for literacy, history, and science!
Have you used Pixton? How have you used it?
