You have a few options of how you use Bitmoji. Let’s talk about the basics of Bitmoji because it is a bit complicated.

This is a fun way to create an avatar to represent the specialness of each of your students, and yourself. When creating your avatar on Bitmoji, you get to personalize yourself in so many ways: skin tone, hair color, hair length, shape of face, general body build, adding glasses or hats, and even adding wrinkles or not (if we are being realistic or prefer to remember our youth!). Let’s get started by talking about how to create a personal Bitmoji! Due to this age requirement, I have included additional ideas about using emojis with younger students who can’t use Bitmoji yet, and I also included a few additional tools for the younger grades. (Of course, teachers of those younger students could still create Bitmojis to use for themselves). One caveat to share: the terms for using Bitmoji state that students must be 13 years of age. I have wanted to explore this site/extension/app for a long time, and it was finally the perfect time.

I am not sure about you, but I had no idea that any emoji days even existed! What better time than now to feature a tech tool related to emojis! Of course, the first tool that came to my mind was Bitmoji ( TeachersFirst Review ). Happy World Emoji Day (also called National Emoji Day)! This year we celebrate on July 17th.
