Canva

I decided to explore Canva this week. I wanted to explore this sight because I am always trying to find ways to make informational posters in my classroom to help my students remember key details during math and reading and I thought this looked like a great tool to be able to do that. I really enjoyed using Canva. It took me a while to figure out how to use the free parts of it. There are a lot of templates you can use and adjust for free and you can move text and insert your own images very easily. You do need an account to use the site, but you don't have to purchase anything if you don't want to. I could see 3rd graders and higher using this tool to create posters on books they've read, demonstrating how to solve certain math problems, or even a way to show what they learned through research projects on historical figures or animals. 

Tips for users: If you don't want to purchase anything on this site, pay attention to things that have a money symbol or a crown next to the image or template. Those are things you have to purchase. Look for the ones that have nothing next to them, and you can use them however you'd like.
