Thing 9

Using the online generators was fun! One of the sites given was a tad more difficult to use than the others, but after some general "playing around" with the tools it was fairly easy to figure out. All the images I made involved nothing more complex than typing a few words of my choice, followed by a single click of a button; the picture on the site changed to include my words, right before my eyes!
These generators would be great tools for making instructional signs to be displayed throughout an elementary school building, (modeled after road signs, which appeared to be a popular theme on all the sites) indicating that students should keep their volume to a minimum, walk rather than run, focus/concentrate, etc. They could also be used to create name signs for each student, to be placed on his or her cubby, desk, chair, and so forth.

The sites I used were
