“You can use it for social-emotional learning to get the mood of your class!”
Francesca Mazzoni, IT and Digital Skills Teacher

How to use drop pin with your students:
“Put some emojis in your image, like a happy face, an angry face, or a bored face, and then ask your students to pin the emojis that best represent their mood. This way you’ll get an insight into your class!”

Make images your gameboard with drop pin! Upload any image to have your students pin an area in response to a question. Here are a few ways you can use drop pin in your classroom:
