005. Hello Friends! Back again with another animated tutorial on Bitmojis for your virtual classroom. I recently posted in one of my Facebook educator groups an animated gif banner that I made for my welcome back to school class page. I teach high schoolers so I need as much leverage I can get to get them awake and stimulated and back to learning mode. I recently attended a live Canvas LMS training sessions and saw a presentation by @teacherwinters show us how he used Canva to create all his buttons, and Page banners for his class periods. But then he did this cool trick of animating the banner using the "animate" feature in Canva. Whoa! Stop the presses. You can do that in Canva. I am learning something new daily in Canva. This has been my greatest and most utilized tool in my teacher toolbox. So I decided why not use my virtual Bitmoji classroom as my banner for my CanvasLMS Welcome to Mrs Duncan's class. So my steps are: 1) Recreate or make a new google slide and change the page size layout. 2) Use dimension of your chosen or assigned LMS to change page size. 3) Google search for e.g Google classroom header dimensions 2020. In video tutorial I explain why you must type in your search 2020. 4) With your new slide recreate you virtual classroom. 5) Don't add Bitmoji. you can do that in Canva. 6) Download and save the slide as a JPEG file. 7) Watch my tutorial. Feel free to pause the tutorial and continue or repeat. At the end of this blog post I have you given you the google classroom I used in this tutorial that you can used to practice on and if you like use on your google classroom. Opportunities exist for season virtual classroom banners...Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New year. Using giphy in Canva creates limitless opportunities to be creative. I do hope you have a chance to head over to youtube and watch this tutorial. Have fun with this starte virtual banner Bitmoji classroom.
