Templates and Backgrounds

Use ready-made organizers, background patterns, and locked reference images to turn a blank board into a structured activity.

Background options

• Blank: open-ended drawing and brainstorming.
• Grid, dots, graph, ruled, and isometric: math, note-taking, sketching, and layout support.
• Education templates: KWL, Frayer Model, T-chart, Venn diagram, timeline, Cornell notes, storyboard, exit ticket, and more.
• Locked image backgrounds: use a teacher-provided reference image students cannot accidentally move.

How to use a template

1. Open Background Templates or choose a built-in layout from the board.
2. Select a template that matches the activity.
3. Open it in DrawSplat^TM or insert it on the current panel.
4. Add prompts, labels, or example responses on the teacher layer.
5. Duplicate the panel when each group or station needs its own copy.

Classroom ideas

• Use a Frayer Model for vocabulary practice.
• Use a timeline for sequencing events or process steps.
• Use a Venn diagram for comparison and contrast.
• Use an exit ticket panel as the final frame of a lesson.
• Save a finished prompt frame as a reusable template for future classes.
