Class Poster Contest! Teachers who create a poster using Adobe Express can share it with Adobe by September 1st for a chance to have it printed and sent to their classroom. Adobe will be printing and sending the first entries we receive (while funds last). Teachers can find helpful poster templates in this Activity Bundle, or create their own!

All students and staff will benefit from using Adobe Express! Designing and creating meaningful products promotes application of the 4Cs of 21st Century Learning (Creativity, Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking), and provides opportunity for students and staff to apply UDL Guidelines to their learning (Provide multiple means of engagement, representation, and action & expression).
"By teaching students how to tell their own creative visual stories, or to respond to what they learn with images and videos, you’re automatically encouraging them to engage more deeply with their learning, because they are creating something meaningful, powerful, and personal to them."
