iPad Challenge
If you didn't know how to use the Markup Tools in Photos before, you do now! Good job!

 

Ready for the Markup challenge?

Check with your parents or teacher to see if you can take your iPad outside at school or at home to take a photo.

  • Remember to keep yourself safe when using the iPad outside.
  • Ask your parents to help you find some things to take pictures of.

 

You can also take a photo through the window instead of going outside.

Find something that you can make better by drawing on the photo.

Or you might have an idea of how you can draw something into the scene that makes you smile. 😀

  

For example, I saw this really interesting big tree, but the grass had not started growing yet, so I drew in some flowers to make it look more like spring and I also put some party lights in the tree to brighten it up. I couldn't resist adding the face.💡

Share your finished photo in the next media album.
I can't wait to see what you create!
