Thing # 9 What's your Sign?




I originally went to http://www.customsigngenerator.com/ to find a sign generator. They had many links to other sign generators depending on the type of sign the user wants to create. I created the warning sign for road and construction workers. Concrete is pretty hard, and yet plastic is not. It was funny to me. Then I created a road sign for those who lost their way. It was not meant to be funny, but to make the reader think. I am a teacher candidate, but I am also a believer. I'm not ashamed to say so. Maybe I'll get lucky and teach at a religious-based private school, or be a religious-based home school administrator for an area. Before I get all the leftists upset, remember- this is my blog and I'll bless you and love you if I want to brother and sister. Back to the assignment!
Creating these signs was as simple as picking a sign type, putting in my message and clicking a button. Saving the code costs money on this site now (it used to be free). But saving the picture was easy and free. I right-clicked my picture and then "saved picture as" on my hard drive. I might use this tool to create T-shirt transfers. I love funny T-shirts. I may also use this tool in my classroom to label things in the classroom. I could also use it to post formulas on the walls and bulletin boards. Using this tool as part of a project would be fun for students.
