Welcome to my Digital Lessons. This page will allow you to access all the necessary files to adapt these lessons to your own classroom. Below is the table of contents from my ~growing~ student’s booklet.
Most of these lessons and tutorials are based on Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0. While this version is old and is no longer available, some of these tutorials may still be usable. At some point I will probably update these for a new platform. Usually I have been making videos instead because that works better for most kids.

Is it possible to purchase your lesson plans? I am moving to TAB this year and my school requires a specific format for lesson plans. I am on the struggle bus.
I have a couple on TPT and working on my store here.
