Google Slides design tricks (tips for designing classroom activities)
Google Slides is a great tool for designing drag-and-drop activities for your students.
While fun for students, these activities can be time consuming to design....unless you know three simple Google Slides design tricks.
I'd like to introduce you to three design tips for Google Slides that will make creating student activities even faster:
1️⃣ Duplicate: this is the fastest way to make copies of shapes, lines, and images.
2️⃣ Align: Use the align tool to line up shapes along the vertical or horizontal axis.
3️⃣ Distribute: Need to space out shapes or lines? Let Slides do it for you by using the arrange tool!
