In this creative digital activity, students step into the year 1693, just after the Salem Witch Trials. Their task is to design a colorful “Welcome to Salem” billboard using a fully interactive online tool. Students can edit text, choose from spooky colonial fonts, use a fill tool to change the background, and decorate their sign with witch-themed stamps—including multiple kinds of witches, brooms, potions, and more. They can also generate a humorous, witchy slogan to spark ideas or write their own. When finished, students can save their design or print their completed billboard as a final product. This activity blends history, creativity, and technology to help students imagine what a 17th-century welcome sign might have looked like—with a fun twist!
