Easy to Use
Smore has formatted templates or you may create from scratch using drag and drop! Within just a few minutes, you can have a professional and stunning flyer or newsletter. After you create your flyer, you can share it various ways from social media, email to a sharable link. You can make your flyer public or private. Private means that it is not indexed on Google and can only been seen if you have the address. Even if you do not want to share digitally, you can still download and print up your Smore flyer!

How can I use Smore?
There are endless possibilities. I loved the quick informational flyer I sent out to fellow staff members as a follow-up to a question on technology integration. I also created my course syllabus for all of my classes this year on Smore and placed the link on business cards from VistaPrint for each class. I plan to insert the link of my syllabus onto my About page in Google Classroom and send it out via Remind!
- Classroom Newsletters
- Course Syllabus
- Field Trip information
- Introduce a Project
