What motivates you?
How about your very own poster with motivational quote? How cool would you be if you walked into class and there was a picture of you as a motivational poster complete with funny/wise/pithy saying to use as a journal prompt for the day? Or as a way of recognizing various students in your classes. Or even as a cool “Happy Friday” gift for a fellow teacher.
Check out the poster I made of my youngest daughter.
Click on it for a bigger view. (This is cute enough I may even use it in her scrapbook! LOL!)
So – where can you do this? Head over to Flickr and their “Motivator“. You can upload any picture from your computer or if you already have pictures uploaded somewhere else, just click on the “url” tab and enter the link where the picture is stored.
Make a few editing choices about borders and whatnot and enter what quote you want to go with the picture.
What? Can’t think of anything quotable? Neither can I so I cheated.
Check out these sites for ideas: Motivational Sayings and Quotations . If you can’t find anything there to satisfy your pithy phrase craving, just search google for quotations and MILLIONS of suggestions will be at your fingertips.
Once you’ve typed in your text, click on “create” and then you have the choice to save it or print it out. There a couple of other options you can play with but those two will probably take care of most of your desires.
Have fun and don’t forget about friends’ pictures for the upcoming high school reunion – how funny could those be as posters?
