My guess is that one of the things that your students really enjoy is drawing as well as technology
0:05
So this website autodraw will combine drawing with technology and even throw in a little artificial intelligence
0:13
This is a really fun program that I'm happy to share with you
0:16
So we're going to start by going to autodraw.com and we are going to start drawing
0:21
So this is great because it gives students a chance to be creative and to draw
0:26
Directly on their laptop or whatever technology that you have. So there's lots of ways to use autodraw
0:32
But in this situation, let's say that the class read the book Charlotte's Web and is now going to use autodraw to illustrate a particular scene
0:39
So first we're gonna start using the drawing tool and we are going to draw some grass
0:48
Now I'm gonna use the autodraw pen to make a sunshine I'm gonna start by drawing my sunshine and you'll notice that along the top
0:56
Autodraw is going to try to figure out which shape I'm drawing rather than using my sunshine, which really doesn't look so good
1:03
I'm going to choose this one Now I can resize this and move this over here
1:08
The other nice thing you can do in autodraw is use the fill tool So rather than this just being an outline shape, I can use the fill tool to color in between the lines
1:22
And let me keep drawing with the autodraw tool this time I'm going to draw a barn I
1:33
Can use a select tool to move and adjust this and the fill tool to color this in
1:45
Now how about everyone's favorite character Wilbur the pig I This one will look good and of course Charlotte the spider
2:06
Now I'm almost finished but the last thing I can do is add text
2:23
Once you're done you can share your creation and I'll see you in the next video
2:36
By clicking the share button and choosing copy link So the website is autodraw.com it's a great tool, especially if you work with younger students
2:48
