Things #13

It was fun experimenting with these image generators.  I really like Spell Flickr.  I spelled my name, my grade, and my school.  Since I can select what letter I like, I can do a combination of lower and uppercase letters.  I will have my students identify lower and uppercase letters in the words.



I usually decorate my room in smiley face theme so I was excited to see Happy Face Generator.  We usually discuss autumn and the changes we see during this time, so I made a smiley face with autumn leaves. I simply clicked on the sample text, typed in the new and saved.

Our school is undergoing renovations, so Happy Face Construction Worker will be a great motivator.  I selected the face I wanted, changed the text and size of font, and saved.

There were other generators I explored and have ideas how I could use them in the classroom.  Flickr Color Pickr will be a good resource at the beginning of the year when I teach the individual colors.  Mappr would be great for bringing geography to life with photos.

I am glad I was introduced to these resources.
