Beautiful headers for your Google Classroom

I love nice images and I often lay down on my bed with Photoshop and create. Others might knit or paint, but I create in Photoshop. I made some headers for my Google Classroom with inspirational quotes for the students (and myself!). I usually get images from Pixabay, put them together and change the size and format to fit Google Classroom.

Google Classroom headers should be in the format 1000 * 250 pixels. The best way to make images is with Adobe Photoshop, but since Photoshop is not free and somewhat tricky to use. Windows Paint will o the job as well. Just click the "change size" button and set the width to 1000 and the height to 250. After that you may paste clipart or photos into your image and put text on it. It's quite fun once you get started!

Click the buttom to get free header images.

Get the zip

Get them from Google Drive

Just follow these steps to use them as headers

1. Click the "Upload photo" at the bottom of the header image.

2. Choose an image from your computer. (For some very strange reason, you cant choose pictures from Google Drive so they must be from your computer).

3. Make sure that the box that shows which part of the image that will be displayed covers the entire image.

4. Chose "Select class theme", and you're done!
