Creating WordArt |
Free |
Word Art is a great tool available in Microsoft Office that enables you display text using a variety of fancy, decorative features. These include:
- making the text follow a curved line or downwards slope;
- rotating the text around so that it is slanted;
- adding shadow to the text;
- changing the colour of the text so that it is a blend of two or more colours;
- making the text appear with a 3D effect.
Each Word Art element is treated as an 'object' on the screen which can be moved about/repositioned on the page or slide quite easily.

Using the Drawing Tools |
Free |
Many people associate primary ICT artwork with using painting programs, although it's important not to forget to teach children how to use object-based graphics packages too.
As I've discussed on this page, the main differences between painting and drawing software is the way the different elements of an image are stored:
- Painting programs let you paint virtually onto the screen as if it were a canvas and store images by remembering the colour of each of the dots or pixels in the image.
- Drawing programs let you create pictures made up of shapes or objects and store images by remembering the: position, size shape and colour of each of the objects within it.
