60 Story Starters 4.02

The Webber® Photo Cards — 60 Story Starters application for iPhone®, iPad®, and iPod touch® offers a collection of 60 visually engaging story starter images sourced from the Super Duper® Publications card deck. This app integrates audio cues with these images, providing 180 varied prompts designed to encourage students to initiate their own stories in an entertaining and interactive manner.

This tool is easy to navigate, with students simply touching the screen to hear a story starter and then responding verbally or in writing to predict what might happen next. Users can refresh the prompt to receive a different starter by tapping the refresh button. Each image includes three different story starters. Moving between cards is intuitive—sliding the current image to the side reveals the next, and selecting a name at the top bar allows for switching between different players. For efficiency, the app also features an Auto-Advance setting, which progresses through cards and players automatically. Ending a session is straightforward via the End menu, with options to resume or review results later.

The application provides useful features such as tracking responses for multiple participants, displaying performance data in a graph, and options for printing or emailing results for further review.

The Webber® Photo Cards — 60 Story Starters app supports educators in fostering storytelling skills, including understanding story structure (beginning, middle, end), character feelings, and setting description. It also promotes language development through increased sentence complexity, as well as overall writing improvement. Additionally, it serves as a versatile tool to reinforce articulation and fluency skills across diverse student populations.
