Where I’d Like to Go – An Icebreaker With Google Drawings

As the brand-new school year starts many you may discover yourself searching for some new ideas to get and break the ice to know your new trainees while they also get to understand each other. One thing that Ive constantly asked my trainees is “where on the planet would you go if you could go anywhere today?” Recently, Ive started believing about turning that question into the prompt for an activity in which students find out a bit about
Google Drawings..

The idea is to have trainees essentially position themselves anywhere in the world through the use of Google Drawings. To do this students initially need to discover an image of themselves and get rid of the background from it. Once they have a photo of themselves then students open Google Drawings where they insert a photo of location that they desire to visit or review.

As I discuss in the video above, you can modify this activity to be completed with Google Slides or Google Jamboard. And, as is also demonstrated in the video above, you can use Google Classroom to distribute a design template for the assignment.
