Photostories are digital stories shown in a sequence of photographs. You can write on the photographs, narrate what is happening, add music and effects and turn the whole digitial story into a movie. It is a fantastic programme and can be used in a multitude of ways from Grade 1 – Adult! Microsoft has a marvelous programme called Photostory 3 for Windows that is very useful to use in a technology-integrated classroom.
If Photostory 3 is not already part of your Windows package you can go to Google and ask for a download. It will probably take you to Microsoft.com/downloads.
Before you get started plan what you want to do.
- What will you call your photostory?
- What photos will you use and where will you find them?
- Do you want to add narration?
- Will you use music?
Put everything you want to use in a folder.

One of the great things about using Photostory 3 is that it can easily be uploaded to a blog without going through YouTube or a similar hosting programme. This is a photostory of a blogging project I did with a combined Grade 4/5 class at school. This illustrates how you can write on photos, add interleaves and add music...plus upload it to a blog.
