📚✨ Reading Is for Every Age, Every Stage! ✨📚
Reading opens doors to new worlds, diverse perspectives, and endless opportunities. No matter your age, it’s never too early — or too late — to turn the page. Let’s keep reading, learning, and growing together. ❤️📖 #ReadEveryDay

Recently got to spend the day celebrating the 1,200 brilliant students at Miwok Village Elementary school in @ElkGroveUnified. As champions of our Adobe Express Student Creator Challenge, they earned an Adobe-sponsored ice cream party. The amazing folks from @benandjerrys in Folsom, CA came through with mini pints of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough for all.

Some highlights:
- The school changed their spirit day today to be “Wear Adobe Red” 🍎
- Students asking for my autograph, calling me "Mr. Adobe," and telling their parents on the way out that I own the company 📷����
- 3rd grader saying, “I don’t just like Adobe -- I LOVE Adobe. I can make anything I want!” 🎨
- 4th grader introducing himself to me and saying “Hi, I’m Damian and I am going to work with you at Adobe one day.”💼

Full of gratitude this week, beginning with the amazing students at Plainview Academy in @LAUSD_EdTech. 💥

These students, led by their fabulous teacher Bonnie Puentes, remixed their portraits for Día de los Muertos. Check out how great these look! More to come from Plainview students all year long. 🤫

Check out the remix template: https://t.co/IN0qQPa4GG

@annkozma723 and @weziRthindwa put me on the spot in our @AdobeExpress student livestreams this week and asked me to name an inspirational teacher. I've had many, but the first that came to mind was my brother Jon, who used to teach high school and is now an Asst Coach at @PackMensSoccer. I won't give him credit for teaching me much in the classroom😂, but I guess I'll admit I learned a thing or two from him along the way.⚽️

Have your students make their own Gratitude Plushy: https://t.co/WTmavad5WT

And go Pack! 🐺⚽️

@EdTechAly @AdobeExpress @ClaudioZavalaJr These are so FUN! I bet the students had a blast deciding their creatures and making small tweaks to personalize the template. Go 2nd graders!

[Aly W @EdTechAly]

Grade 2️⃣S's at another school got creative w/ @AdobeExpress designing their own creative creatures using AI! We altered the template for space to write about the creatures. Cute results and a great opportunity for Ss to practice keyboarding skills! #AdobeEduCreative #AdobeforEdu

[Jackson Shaad @JacksonEdTech]

So proud of the students in @PajaroValleyUSD for creating stunning keychain designs for a recent PVUSD Creative Challenge, led by the stellar @EdtechPVUSD team.

Special shout out to Azalea from Freedom Elementary, whose design in @AdobeExpress was chosen by her classmates to get professionally printed!

Nothing better than seeing a students imagination come to life. 🥳🎓🎨
