Adding media from another website (e.g. padlet, Canva) to a Page

1. Go to your content from the other website

2. Look for an option to SHARE or Embed your object on the web site like the "Embed into your page" option shown below

3. Click on this option, then highlight (#1) and copy (#2) the code.

4. Return to the page where you want to post the object (padlet, canva image etc). Go to the right side menu, select "Insert" and then "Embed"

5. Paste the embed code in the box

6. Click Insert at the bottom of the HTML window. It will close.

Adjusting the size

Most times you can drag the corners to make an object larger. If not, I suggest modifying the html code to make the object appear larger on your page. You should see something like:

<object width="480" height="360">

This may appear two times in the embed code. Swap the numbers out trying to maintain a similar ratio between the two numbers, for example:

• • change all 480s to 800

  • change all 360s to 600

This preserves the aspect ratio (360/480 = 600/800) but makes the object a much better size.

To do this, paste the embed code for your object into the "embed" window on your page in Google Sites, then replace the numbers as indicated and save it.
