German Storybirds – Year 8
Posted on 27. Jan, 2010 by Mr Picardo in Deutsch, Year 8
The boys in Year 8 have been working hard learning how to describe themselves and the members of their families. They have used a website called Storybird to create short digital books about imaginary families.
You can view a selection of the books they have created below. Don’t forget to click full screen for the full experience!
And why not leave a comment telling the boys how well they are doing?

I thought that Kieran W’s Storybird was very good, his usage of picture to go with the text went well and I thought he used a wide range of vocabulary. I especially liked the pictures though.

Kieran W, cool storybrid. On the page about your grandad it says “Er ist heißt Don” which means he is is called. Nice pic on the cover!

Kieran W, nice storybird! I thought you used a wide range of vocab and gave good descriptions. You have some cool pictures as well but on the page about your grandad it says ‘er ist heiBt Don’, which means he is is called Don.

I thought kieran W’s was really well presented and had many good pictures. But there is one mistake. But I will forget that one because overall it was a very good piece of work.

Kieran W, your Storybird was amazing! Apart from one mistake which Ben M pointed out the grammer and adjectives used were superb. Also, the pictures in the story were very good.

KieranW, your storybird is very good. You have a wide range of vocabulary for a student learning German for just 6 months. In the final slide however, there is a slight mistake, but on the whole a marvellous effort and you should be proud.
