Hi everyone, Alex Isaacs here 👋I’ve created a fun Adobe Express + Mote template perfect for the season of gratitude! Students generate an animal character in Express, then use Mote to add a voice.

I have been co-teaching with the art teacher on symmetry. The math coach is especially impressed that students are learning about reflective and rotational symmetry with all of the Express options.  We plan to print student work and would like them to be able to pick their favorite. The problem is, that they can only turn in one page on the assignment. If drawings allowed for making additional pages, students could make several pieces of art in one place and turn it in.

Looking for an activity to kick off the school year on the right foot? Why not have your middle schoolers share their voice in an authentic way by creating class expectations using their Gen Alpha slang. Check out the example:Following an "I do", "We do", "You do" approach:First share your teacher-generated model like the one above.Then give an example of a class expectation like "Respect others when they're speaking" and have them turn and talk to share out how they would translate the class expectation using Gen Alpha slang. Sample responses could be "Let them cook" or "Don't talk over the main character".Finally have students create their own posters in Adobe Express using this template. Have students generate their own images using AI and write their class expectation with translation.  Wishing you all a great start to the school year! 🙂

Level up Wax Museum this year. This is a great way for students to share their speeches with the wider community or families that are unable to attend in person.

It also helps to review numbers, vocabulary, and adjectives.  My fifth graders make them each year and I use them throughout the year as my SEL activity for all grade levels.  Template link attached. https://new.express.adobe.com/publishedV2/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:002ac431-8cc3-4736-9cc3-5f733bf3d1d6?promoid=Y69SGM5H&mv=other
