Choose a Trait and Draw Your Badge

In this video, you'll create a digital badge in Google Drawings.

To start, think about character traits that people value, such as: kindness, respect, creativity, dedication, and bravery.

Think about which trait you connect with most.

Or think about a trait you might like to be recognized for with a badge.

Once you've decided on a trait for your badge, add it to the title of your drawing.

Next, choose a shape for your badge.

Because you will add text to your badge, choose a shape that will have enough space for the trait you've chosen.

Adjust the size of your shape to provide enough room for your text.

Center your shape.

Next, draw a text box inside of your shape.

Type the name of the trait that you've chosen in your text box.

Increase the size of the text so your classmates can clearly see the trait.

Center the text inside of the text box.

Adjust the size of the box so that the text fits within the shape.

Then center the text box in your shape.

Next, change the font of the text.

Choose a font color to make your badge look complete.

Now, it's your turn: choose a character trait, add the character trait to your title, add a shape and resize it, add a text box with the name of the character trait, and choose a font and font color for your text.
