Hereis a pretty cool and a fun web tool to create fake Siri messages. Simply, go to the web tool, write your text, and don’t forget to write “Me:… or Siri:…” at the beginning of your sentences. It gives you an image file of your fake conversation, just like it would appear on your phone. You can download, get a link or get the embed code for your blog.
Here are some ideas on how we can use this tool with our students:
- Give students a topic and ask them to create Siri messages about that topic.
- ive the Siri messages blank and ask children to complete them.
