Tip: Text Size

• If you write too much text in the bubble it will be difficult or impossible to read

• A good rule of thumb is to keep the text at 4 rows/lines or less

• The other thing you can do is expand the size of the bubble so that the text size is larger

• This will make it easy for your teacher to read
