I would recommend you download the app then show this post to your students. They can figure this out by following the images below.
Pro Tip - Make sure the kids have a purpose before they begin using the app. That will help focus on the writing process and not on just adding fun images and sounds.
Open the App Store on the iPad
Search for StoryKit
Click the iPhone Apps button at the top of the screen.
Install the app.
Warning: You won't find the app listed under iPads Apps.
