Digital storytelling is a wonderful tool
for classroom instruction as the creativity empowered by it does a better job
in capturing students’ attention.
I used Bubblr to create a story titled “Ms. Xie's ABC by Yu Xie". In the story, I listed several words which begin with letters A, B
and C respectively. By creating this visual story, I intend to let students
understand and memorize those vocabularies. The images shown in the digital
story will help students to associate the abstract word with a vivid picture,
therefore is better able to memorize those words. Following what I have done in
my digital story, students will be given assignments in which they will be asked to create
their own stories to help themselves learn vocabularies. At the end of this
project, students should be able to remember those words and create sentences
using those words. 
These are all good ideas for engaging students.
