12. A Story in 5 Photos
StoryKit
StoryRobe
A five photo story is a collection of five images which tell a story of some kind
without using supplementary text, audio or video. The five photos should “stand
alone” as a story.
A “Story in 5 Photos” project can include five different photos or images either
captured with a digital camera or located online. Students generally respond to a
prompt or challenge which requires creativity and imagination to complete.
Examples might include:
Tell a story in 5 photos of a favorite fairy tale
Tell a story in 5 photos of a favorite book
Tell a story in 5 photos of a scientific process

13. Digital Storytelling
A digital story is a multimedia movie that combines
photographs, video, animation, sound, music, text,
and often a narrative voice to communicate a
message. A digital story is more than “digital telling,”
it’s not just a “tell me the facts” presentation. Digital
stories often use music as well as narrative with
visual imagery in emotionally powerful ways.
