Resource of the Week - Tikatok
Tikatok is a site where children can write, illustrate and publish their own storybooks. Children may create three types of stories: personalized stories (using their names and pictures), StorySparks (using writing prompts to spark ideas), or students may write their stories from scratch. All stories allow the writers to illustrate their books using pictures from the gallery or their own uploaded photos or drawings. Books may be created and shared for free and may be published (hardcover, paperback, or e-book format) for a fee.
Free teacher accounts are available with the Tikatok Classroom Program, allowing teachers to view and edit student work, encourage collaboration, and track each student's progress.
For more resources like this, please be sure to check out the eLIS Digital Resources Collection.
