==About Story==
[[File:Story-icon.svg]]
The Story Activity prompts learner to tell a story by displaying images at random.
[[File:Story.png]]
== Where to get Story ==
The Story activity is ''soon to be'' available for download from the [http://activities.sugarlabs.org Sugar activity portal]: [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/???? Story]
The source code is available on [http://git.sugarlabs.org/story the Sugar Labs Gitorious server].
== Using Story ==
Simply launch the activity and nine images will appear. The learner should try to tell a story that ties the images together into a comprehensive narrative.
=== The Toolbars ===

:from left to right
;Activity-toolbar Button: opens standard Sugar activity toolbar
;Reload-images Button: loads nine new images
;Stop Button: used to exit the activity
== Learning with Story ==
Story is a fun way to get children to engage in narration. Simply generate some images and let the children's imagination do the rest.
== Extending Story ==
* Ask the students to transcribe and refine their stories using the Sugar Write activity. (They can save to the Journal the images used to prompt their story by typing Alt-1 and then embed this image into their Write document.)
* Story can be shared, so the narration can be created amongst multiple students. They can chain together a story by taking turns; each turn involving generating narration for one image.
== Modifying Story ==
* Add new images to story by putting them in the images folder of the activity.
