Working with Emaze was fun and very much like Google Slides or PowerPoint. The difference between them is that it has great animations and graphics. These differences make presentations more enjoyable to make and view, especially as a student. Making these presentations are quick and enjoyable.

ThingLink
ThingLink is great for presenting topics because you can narrow down the topic to major points. You can also use this to quiz students on information. Students can also use this to present a topic because of its simple format or use it as a form of review for a test. The one I created was on the major lakes and bodies of water in the United States.
Online Photo Editing
To edit the photos I have posted, I used iPiccy. It's free and fast to use when doing a quick edit on your photos. For my first photo, the flowers, I used saturate and burn to darken the photo and age it. I also liquified the background and the edges to soften the background and bring more focus to the two flowers. For the second photo, the zebras, I also used burn on this to darken the photo slightly around the edges and then used the tool noise to give it a slight rough texture. Finally for the lighthouse, I used clone to erase the wires that hung from the lighthouse and used matte to blur out the edges with white.

Storybird
I loved using this site! It gives you endless artwork possibilities that you can use to create your very own story. It's also extremely easy to use and to navigate, but they do limit you on font, font size, and how to organize your book. I still had a lot of fun creating my story that I have available below. It can also be exciting for students to use to create their own story to share in and out of class.
