happy Star Wars day!

My family is full of Star Wars nerds, we watched the original films over and over. We watched them at the $1 movie on weekends, on VHS with popcorn at home, and reluctantly tried the “new” movies as they came out. I don’t think my dad will ever watch all of the newest films, but here’s to hope. To celebrate this year I made this choice board (using Google slides) for elementary students. I spent way too much time on the sticker board from Disney, it is adorable! Click the image for the linked web version. #geekon

remove backgrounds- you can’t stop me

When remote learning kicked off in earnest there were quite a bit of google slide assignments. I wanted to kick them up a notch, so I added student drawings with a layered picture of the student IN the drawing. It just added another detail that forced them to put themselves IN the biome, or the poem, or whatever the assignment focus happened to be. I removed the background of every picture I could for a while- you will too! Try remove background for free! Click the slide to see the published version.
