Open Phrase.it <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="image" border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgu-uq8myMbPAl9t_WIpLxWK9Ub43lQ7-aW1Hgjm2etsday3_LKB58OTAITmCCi4ijcN3s2A6suD3QuhxE-8wuu9nm1GmwabOkTqE7q-puA5Ejz26WnVG_JoTgT-UVhwBZq0kRsy95_gwI/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-width: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="400" /></div> 2. Add your photo You can import from Facebook, upload one or use a random stock photo. I added one from the TeachMeet in East London on Tuesday. I notice that the image must be over 400kb. Phrase.it gives you little messages as it uploads – it goes very quickly. I am using a photo from the TeachMeet at East London on Tuesday. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="image" border="0" height="205" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYrK_wg0puoaQ7GdXYYeOm7VImGhNKm0y0OGjnDzZ0KzFLyhm6I5_RSx9MGbBgE-QytSb9C1on8f6L6nqXTIWkFbdsNXYqm5x3aoulmUJb14auEF2v4etDcuwNnw1Gd9DiIrkBkRWdC8U/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="400" /></div> 3. Add your speech bubbles <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="image" border="0" height="193" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiES3C7hLjKjuakabFxMPDCHn5zN5BH6d8evLP4DSlrLnFVJgzqnIcL4VZ6NEr9qV0WtzWi9xUARnzC11EYWT69oQ_ahZiDAG0UCjXAtDI-JROn90kTG2gxT0OfWdNuBTJA0gKz3MWSJq8/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="400" /></div> 4. Preview what you have done <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="image" border="0" height="135" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnYMcVS3RFsfFC0eozlfypmqnbj3M3DN-17Gr2uuL75p1xHAbbRRNKtzxaQAQr6u2IWP5KKKby6dl67QScieIyoHo1vGkgbB9-McLq8Z8EjaGDV45hZxlVRQzeekSi-_XbLefLesS8Nzo/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="242" /></div> 5. Save and download You have various options. One is to email it. I chose download. A little box comes up as you download to see if you want to display it on any social media.  There is also an option to make an optional monetary donation. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="image" border="0" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA0NKmfycLieTsSei6vZ7Wo6SNjCGCpJCG6LhP3JYhigSUaQYZAaUPNT4_U2H8GLTPUWzE-rdhtMy-pVXNZKkvM1uI3IIAromZloBfvSaOsj12GENI4f1FnMl3UJ_T5pu2ELF2RiYexEM/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="image" width="77" /></div> 6. View the final result <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="qvc9fq" border="0" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiKtQDvluGaICh9jOwtysy82nvIL5FmBay02i7tDcITPiCN_6-o0g7uFj30wASoFzVvB1Qk1DuP_RT7uUL4l5Gz5OtrbPtoYyY0aaTbV5NQ1qo-V0Z0wYFtkwSSjmdkb3qyPKiG4Ma13A/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="qvc9fq" width="400" /></div> I must confess, I need to play around with it a bit. I couldn’t get the speech bubbles to go any smaller, for example. I also couldn’t raise them so that the end bit didn’t overlap with a person’s face. But I love this idea of adding speech bubbles to photos quickly. Phase.it is quick and easy. Classroom use 1. Use this in the classroom for a board display. 2. Let your students upload a photo of themselves and add something that says something about themselves, their charactger, their opinion etc. 2. Just have fun with it.</div>
