**If you are unfamiliar with this project, check out my first post introducing my pilot project with LearnPads and comparing them to iPads. Tellagami is an app that allows you to create an avatar, customize the background, record for 30 seconds and share with the world. After you have recorded your voice, your avatar will then speak your words with gestures and all. It is available for IOS and Android. This past week my students were working on writing friendly letters. We spent time reviewing the different parts of a friendly letter. After some review and practice with the different parts of a friendly letter, we used a template to create our rough draft. You can see a picture of it below and download the template here. After my students had created their rough draft we made some revisions and proceeded to publish. We decided to put our new LearnPads to the test with publishing our friendly letters. Students used the Tellagami app to record themselves reading their friendly letters. After completing these recordings, they shared them to our class Twitter account. I have included a few examples below for you to see the final products. LearnPad vs. iPad I have been comparing the LearnPad with the iPad. Using the Tellagami app on both devices was almost identical. The options to share via the LearnPad can be different from the iPad. However, after trying this app out on both devices, I would say it is a tie between the two devices. See my video below highlighting some of the small differences between this app on the LearnPad and iPad. Share This:
