Using Wixie as your teacher design tool

With Wixie, it’s easy to get your classroom ready for back-to-school. From posters to classroom design, to seating charts and more, your work in Wixie can help inspire and welcome students for a fun year back at school.

Personalized stationery and invitations

Use the Wixie design tools to create your own unique classroom stationery and invitations. This provides an opportunity to share with students the art of writing thank you notes or letters. The letterhead can also be used to ask for donations for field day or other events and the invitations for fun school events like back-to-school night, class parties and more.

Browse the Stationery or Invitation folders for some inspiration. Then, start your own blank page and search for images in the Stickers library.

Classroom newsletters

Create personalized newsletters to keep families up-to-date with classroom happenings. It's easy to get started with one of the various newsletter templates in the Teacher folder. You can use the various design tools to customize visually appealing newsletters that highlight important dates, student achievements, and upcoming events.

Utilize Family Sharing to easily share newsletters, student work, and classroom updates with families. This is a great way to engage families and keep them informed.

Classroom calendar

Create the perfect calendar for you and your students to keep track of important dates and events.

Classroom website

Start with this background to make your own classroom page in Wixie. Simply adjust the background to match your needs. Use the Image button to add details. Select each object to add a hyperlink to more information and resources.

Certificates

Create customs certificates for your students this year in Wixie. Browse the Certificate folder or search “certificate” on your home page to find a variety of options to celebrate your students’ achievement.

Posters

Use the tools in Wixie to make your classroom colorful and fun. This is a great way to model risk taking, as well as craftsmanship. It is also a great time to show your students that you also know how to use Wixie!

Seating chart

You can use the Seating Chart template to set up a seating chart for your classroom. Each of the student desks and names are separate items. To rearrange, simply select and move both items.

Plan your room

Looking to take it a step further and rearrange your classroom this school year? Start with a blank canvas or use a grid template to design the perfect learning environment for you and your students.

Showcase gallery

Use the gallery walk template to showcase high quality student work. Simply use the Project Wizard book option in your Showcase folder to create a project with student work added as web objects. This way, viewers can select a web object to view the entire project “on display.”

Book trailers

Get students excited about the books you will be reading this year with a book trailer introductory video. Use one of the video templates or let your design skills go wild by starting with a blank canvas.

After you have inspired your students, challenge them to create their own book trailers to entice others to read their favorite books.

With these tools and ideas, you can use Wixie to create an engaging and welcoming classroom environment that fosters creativity and excitement for learning.
