By Jennifer Orton Looking for something new, fun, and different to try in your classroom? Check out the app Ditty. This app allows you to type in anything you want, and Ditty turns it into a song! This song can be downloaded to your iPad and imported into any other app that allows imports from your camera roll. Check out the example below. It isn't fancy but it will give you an idea of what Ditty does. Yes, it is fun and yes, it can be used in your classroom. Here are 3 ways you could incorporate Ditty today!
1. Have students create a musical exit ticket. 2. Give a musical book talk with music that matches the theme. 3. Create a ditty with a catchy song and/or rhyme to help remember an important fact! The challenge with using Ditty is that students only have 60 characters to work with. So they really have to choose their words carefully! Ditty not only allows you to personalize your text and your song, you can also add your own photos and videos. What will you create with Ditty? Share your ideas below.
