Michelle, I just created my class's end-of-year slideshow using this tutorial. It has been hands down the easiest step-by-step guide with the most professional results! Thank you so much for sharing all you know and making our teacher lives so much easier!

Exactly what I needed. Canva is pretty easy to use but after watching your video I know so many more tips which are definitely going to save me time.

Michelle, I can't thank you enough for this video! A couple of weeks ago, I started playing around with Canva but was quickly overwhelmed with all of the options, since I've never used it to make a slideshow video before. Thank you for making this process so much easier! :)

Thank you thank you thank you! I have been waiting for a tutorial on how to do this! You always break everything down into such simple steps! I have so many ideas running through my head right now on what to do with this! I will most definitely be watching this video again! I know you may not see this comment, but have an amazing time on your trip!❤

Happy weekend, Michelle! My students had their first week of state testing, so it is nice to watch a video about a completely different, and fun, topic. I love that the slideshow is a free and creative way to celebrate the end of the year...like a digital yearbook for just your class. I also enjoyed the podcast, as always. I have been using digital planning for many years now because it is such a time saver to move plans, attachments, and ideas from date to date. I am team digital planning all the way! Thanks for another great video; your ideas are always much appreciated! Have a fantastic week! 💜

I stayed ed up until 10:00 pm watching Pocketful of Primary. My alarm went off at 5:00. I snoozed it about 5-10 times😆. Goodness, I am not a morning person either. But thank you for this amazing

You are my absolute favorite presenter all things tech and teaching! Super well-organized and efficient… I’ve got the foundations to create my year end video for my Kindergarten class. Mahalo! (From the Big Island of Hawai’i 🌺)

What a great idea. Thank you for showing us the Canva tips and tricks to make video creation easy!!

[jackiehenry]

This is awesome! I can’t wait to create my end of year video. Thanks for making this easy-to-follow, step-by-step video tutorial. 😊

[mindyblankenship]

So helpful! Can I use my own music? We have a special class intro song I’d like to use!!

[jessicahagler]

Thank you for this video! I am having trouble with the fade in/out feature. Can you help with that?

[heidir.]

Great idea. Is there a limit to the number of photos you can add? I would have over 300 and would want to be able to share it with my families.

[debbieblaisse]

Thank you! How do you dupicate several slides at one time?

[lkfrizzell]

I want to make a video for my church, year in review. I have literally hundreds of photos to choose from. Should I use Canva for a project like this??

[debreale]

Another fantastic video, Michelle! Thank you. I’m a retired educator and have been tutoring reading and writing as an O.G. tutor since 2020. I’m most likely retiring in June, but will volunteer at the school I’ve been tutoring in. I’d love to create some helpful educational videos, but I won’t be a school employee. Is Canva very expensive? Is there an annual fee?

[jackalex]

This is a great idea for an end of year video! Thanks for the tutorial!🤍

[frankmanto]

Can you also upload the presentation straight to social media, such as Facebook ?

[elizabethyoung]

is there any way have canva place all photos automatically? We have almost 200 school photos!
