Lessons have been assigned to them based on their diagnostic test results both in Math and Reading. Within each lesson are brain break games. The district is pushing a goal of 45 minutes per week on Online Lessons in ELA and 45 minutes per week in Math to close the gaps found in the diagnostic. Math and ELA are providing some of that time during the week, but not all.

Learning to use Layers makes managing your content faster and easier!

Create a new layer, add artwork to that layer, and change some properties for the layer...

Working with layers in the layers panel is useful in a lot of ways including for example when you have different elements in an icon or a logo that you need to work on individually without affecting the other elements. 

For this poster, you'll create a background shape and then create a layer to more easily select the content later.

Layers Panel

To access the layers in the document you'll open the layers panel… so choose WINDOW then LAYERS


You will see each layer is LOCKED and named


But they are not in the correct order!


Correcting the Layer order

We now need to move the layers so they are in the correct order!

In the Layers dialog box, click and pull each layer (down and up) until they are in the following order!

Top Bun

Mayo

Lettuce

Onions

Pickles

Top Patty

Tomatoes

Center Bun

Bottom Patty

Cheese

Bottom Bun

Moving the items

Now you need to unlock each layer and move the ingredient into place to make a complete hamburger!

To unlock a layer, in the layers panel, click the padlock to unlock it (it should disappear!)

Start with the cheese layer (leave the Bottom Bun locked and where it is!)

Each ingredient layer is grouped, so using the SELECT TOOL simply click and drag the ingredient into place

Remember to lock the layer when you are done moving the ingredient!
