Session description

Even the littles can create successfully with Canva! Get fun ideas, from app smashing to personalizing your classroom, and brand kits will be thrown in like glitter! In the grand finale, you will receive multiple templates to edit and make your own.

Purpose & objective

Participants will have the opportunity to sign up for and play with Canva. They will be introduced to pieces of Canva that are relevant for primary students such as the brand kit, drawing extension, and ways they can personalize their classroom.

Outline

Since this is a playground session, there won't be a set timeline. The direction I take will depend on what the people at the playground need. It might be helping people sign up or showing them how to make brand kits. I will also be sharing templates that they can remix.
