Made together in class

A class story in three parts

Plan it together. Draft it. Review it as a class.

  1. Plan together

    Choose a character, a place and a problem as a class. Write the idea on the board in one or two sentences.

  2. Make a draft

    Type the class idea into StoryMint and let it draft the book while you talk about what might happen.

  3. Review as a class

    Read it page by page. Does the picture match the words? Would a different word be better? Change it together.

Privacy and safety in class

You decide what leaves the classroom.

StoryMint is for adults making books with children. Here is what that means in practice.

Read the privacy policy

  • Books stay private until you share them

    A new book is visible only in your account until you choose to share a link or publish it.

  • Adults control sharing

    Sharing and publishing are done by the adult who owns the account, not by students.

  • Ideas are checked before anything is drawn

    Every idea is checked before StoryMint starts, and StoryMint draws original characters, not ones from shows or brands.

FAQ

Teacher questions

More in the classroom project guide.

Do students need their own accounts?

No. Many teachers run the project from one teacher account on the classroom screen, so students shape the story without signing up.

Can I use it in Spanish?

Yes. StoryMint has a Spanish site with its own books, where stories, captions and menus are in Spanish.

Can we print the class book?

Yes. Choose an eligible paid plan or a book credit when you want the downloadable PDF, then print it for the class.

Is it free to try?

Yes. Free to start, no card required. See Pricing for what each plan includes.

Can we change the story after it is made?

Yes. Review every page and edit the story in the workspace. Revising together is often the best part of the lesson.

Your next class book starts with one sentence.
