Fun and Free Homeschool Resource: StoryJumper

As someone new to homeschooling I am excited when I find new resources that are fun and engage students. A  recent site that I found that is perfect for school teachers and homeschoolers alike is StoryJumper.

"StoryJumper is an online tool that makes creative writing fun for kids. Using our interactive workbook and lesson plans, teachers spark students' interest in developing and writing complete stories.Kids can then put their creativity and project skills to work in crafting their very own professionally published hard-back books!" from Storyjumper Website.

I have used this tool with my kindergartner. She learns how to put together a story, how to do some basic graphic work, and about the components of a book like the title page or book dedication. We have made two fun books so far, and I hope to use the site more as she advances in reading. 

For more advanced students and schools, there are tools to help with story structure and the option to buy class sets of the books created at a discount. While hard copies cost per book, sharing the book online through social media is free.
