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

The idea is to have students essentially put themselves throughout the world through the use of Google Drawings. To do this trainees initially need to discover an image of themselves and get rid of the background from it. Photoscissors makes it fast and simple to get rid of the background then download a brand-new background-free image. Once they have a photo of themselves then students open Google Drawings where they insert a photo of place that they wish to review or check out. They then insert their profile photo over the background image in Google Drawings. Those actions may sound complicated, but theyre not. In this short video I show the entire process..

As the brand-new school year begins numerous you may discover yourself looking for some brand-new ideas to start the ball rolling and get to know your new trainees while they likewise get to know each other. Something that Ive always asked my students is “where in the world would you go if you could go anywhere today?” Recently, Ive started considering turning that concern into the timely for an activity in which students learn a bit about
Google Drawings..

As I discuss in the video above, you can customize this activity to be finished with Google Slides or Google Jamboard. And, as is also shown in the video above, you can utilize Google Classroom to distribute a design template for the project.
