Photoshop Project

I decided to make a poster using Photoshop that I could use in a classroom or a school library. It would work best for mid- to late-elementary, but the concepts are the same for any age level. I used clip art and photos from public domain and one photo I took myself. The credits are at the bottom of the poster, but they are also listed at the end of this post for legibility. The poster teaches about different fiction genres. I gave each genre a color and took a piece of clip art of a book which was originally blue and changed the color to tie it in to each color scheme. Then I took other pieces of pd clip art, pd photos, and one photo I took myself. I silho-ed the photos and placed them on the books.
It think the poster is an effective way to reach visual learners when teaching about different genres.
