Use the Simplemind app to map out your Storykit project. Down load the Story Kit app. Create a story about a cycle (ie: water, rock...) Include pictures from either your photo collection, one you have drawn with another app or from the web. You can use the butterfly cycle photos below if you would like to. When you find a picture on the web you want, hold your finger down on the image you want. It will give you the choice to save the image. Click on that, and it will save it to your Photo Collection. From there you can bring it into your story.
 * See how you are able to share the stories you create.
 * Pass the ipods/ipads around clockwise to view one another's stories.
 * How else could you use this app with your students?

= 2:00-2:30 Summer Renditions-Art Connection (Cherie) =

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. ~Pablo Picasso



Background Information:

==== Cave men drew with charcoal on the walls of caves in Lescaux France. Charles Remington drew watercolors of cowboys and the West in the margins of letters to his friends back home in the eastern US. Human beings are compelled to share their interpretations of the world around them, and as technology advances, so do the tools they use. ====

==== Since 2008 artists such as David Hockney and Columbo have been using the iphone and drawing apps such as "Brushes" to create, (and sell) works of art. Here are some links with interviews and video about these creations... ====

George Columbo paints New York street scenes that become the cover of The New Yorker Magazine

David Hockney creates iPhone art. An article from "The Telegraph"
