Magic ink is an awesome tool that is easy to use and has tons of applications. My favorite is called picture revealer.
Step 1: Find a picture that would be interesting to students as a hook for a lesson.
Step 2: Create a shape that covers the picture.
Step 3: Go to the object browser and make sure the shape is in the top layer and the picture is in the middle or bottom layer.
Step 4: Go to tools and click on magic ink.
Step 5: Click on time in the center of the shape so that it reveals a little box (window) above a tiny section of the original picture you chose.
You are ready for the hook for your lesson! Call on students one at a time to guess what the picture is and then come up and reveal one more little section of it. They can click anywhere on the picture they want and then the they get a guess. This is an excellent way to bring up topics that students will enjoy.
Have fun!!
