This week's tip from the library- 7 ways to Use Google Drawings
One quick way to have students create as a means of showing what they've learned is Google Drawings. Contrary to what it sounds like, you do not have to be good at drawing to create something very cool. Here are just a couple of ideas:
ELAR: Design a "Wanted Poster" for a character in your novel. Who is looking for them? Why would someone be looking for them? Ask them to add elements that demonstrate their knowledge of the character's traits, how the setting affects the plot, etc.
MATH: Give examples of 4 equations and ask students to sort them into columns based on categories, assign each column an answers and place the correct equation with an answer, etc.
SCIENCE: Create a Venn Diagram of a Plant and Animal cell. Add a short text box comparing and contrasting the cells
SOC.STUDIES: Create a timeline of the major events of a time period. Have them explain the significance of each event they choose to add and how it impacted the time period.
Students can easily search for images and add text to their own drawings, creating their own posters, infographics, etc. Check out the video below for a quick tutorial and more ideas.
