Memory Matching Game that focuses on Synonyms

Synonym Match is like every other memory matching game you’ve played before, but with a little twist. Instead of matching images, you’re required to match pairs of synonyms.

Magical design tool extracts colors, patterns, and more from images

Adobe Capture CC: unleash Capture’s power by overlaying their curated visual assets onto other images to create mini-mashups. After that, have students export Capture’s asset library to other Adobe apps (like Photoshop) to create finalized projects such as composite posters for school events, custom composite images for a class YouTube channel, or a Facebook banner.

It is the shapes tools that excites me.

Price: Free
