It’s not horrible
But they could improve it. But I still found it useful.
Not worth it
Wish i had read the reviews first Same ideas over and over with small variations
I wish I had read the reviews!!
Don't waste your money on this. It is first lines from famous books with the names and one other detail changed. What a piece of garbage!! A 99 cent book from Amazon has better story prompts for one third the price. I suggest you get one of those
Wretched snake oil of an app
It basically repeats the same few lines over and over on a different background. No more late night impulse buys. Just go write if you want to be a writer...and Smile, your about to be $3 richer!
Sorry I wasted my money on this
The story suggestions/prompts consist of maybe 5 general ideas over and over using different names and subject matter...but hey re all the same basic premise. What a waste! I want a refund...
Simple and fantastic!
Story Spark is a wonderful app to get the creative juices flowing. Appropriately challenging vocabulary in a ready-to-use-format. This is a great app for anyone who teaches creative writing and for any grade level.
A+ App
This is a wonderful app. It provides ideas and creativity to children. The app also has the ability to be paired with with lessons in the classroom, which as a teacher is a feature I love. This app also will align in lessons to the common core learning standards for responding to non-fiction texts. THIS IS AN APP TO GET AS A TEACHER! Take it and run with it! Have your students (or if parents your children) read their favorite books and let them make their own story sparks!!! So much potential from one app... Hope you all enjoy the app as much as I do!!!
