How to Use First Day Sign

  1. 1

    Fill the board

    First Day Sign opens on the form. Type Name. Tap a Grade such as Pre-K, K, or 1st. Add Age, Year, Teacher, and I can't wait to if you want those lines on the poster.

  2. 2

    Pick a theme

    Tap Slate, Bus, Crate, or Crayon. The preview is the same poster you will hold. Slate is chalk on a dark board. Bus is enamel yellow. Crate is painted wood. Crayon is wax strokes on paper.

  3. 3

    Show the sign

    Tap Show the sign. The poster says My First Day of School and fills the screen. Hold the iPad. Take the photo. The page fullscreen button stays at the top right if you want the chrome gone too.

    Edit the sign

    Tap Edit the sign at the bottom to change a line. Show the sign again when the board looks right.

Key Features

  • Show the sign

    Tap Show the sign and the poster fills the iPad. The form hides so the photo is just My First Day of School, the name, and the grade.

  • A board built for a photo

    Big type, high contrast, and a portrait poster. Hold the iPad. Take the photo. Slate, Bus, Crate, and Crayon each have their own frame and ink.

  • Name, grade, and a hope

    Fill Name, Grade, Age, Year, Teacher, and I can't wait to. Grade chips run from Pre-K through 8th. Empty lines stay off the poster.

  • Edit the sign

    A small Edit the sign chip sits at the bottom so you can fix a spelling and Show the sign again. The board remembers the last fill on this device.

What is First Day Sign?

First Day Sign is a first-day photo board for a tablet. Kids type a name and tap a grade, then Show the sign so a parent can photograph them holding the iPad. It is a poster, not a quiz and not the First Day of School packing game.

Why Use First Day Sign?

  • 1

    No paper printout

    The iPad is the sign. Fill the board, Show the sign, and take the photo in the doorway.

  • 2

    Readable in a snapshot

    The heading My First Day of School and the name stay large. Empty fields do not leave blank plaques on the poster.

  • 3

    Four photo looks

    Slate, Bus, Crate, and Crayon change the frame, not just a tint. Pick the one that matches the porch.

  • 4

    Built for a thumb

    Grade chips and Show the sign stay large. Edit the sign is at the bottom, away from the page fullscreen control.
