PuppetPals HD – (the Directors Cut) is a natty app that allows your pupils to re-enact scenes, re-tell stories or practise speaking and listening.

Once the pupils have gained the skills to add actors and scenes they rapidly produce an engaging and memorable piece of work that you’ll want to share!

Pupils can even take pictures of themselves and use them as characters to personalise their performance although many younger pupils, who are less confident about appearing on-screen, prefer to use the built-in images.

 

What you need to know:

– Director Cut version of the app allows multiple scenes and actors.

– the recording can be exported to photos as a video

– you can pause the audio recording and restart easily, giving pupils confidence.

– it’s addictive

You can use this as a vehicle to support script writing, talk for writing or as a way to capture ideas and discussion points in ‘learning for life’ lessons.
