Great work! You made your first (and probably most difficult) modification.

First:

• Go to Mentimeter.com (if you don't have an account, create a free one)
• Press on "+ Presentation"
• Choose the blank option
• Choose "Word Cloud"
• You will want to title the presentation at the top where it says, "Untitled Presentation"
• You will see a box for a question. In that box type, " What Color are you?"
• Adjust "Entries per participant" to 1
• You may add an image if you like.
  • click on the blue "Click to add image"
  • choose image library
  • I put the word "colors" into the search bar and chose a picture from there.

Press the "Share" link at the top. You will need to do two things at this point. FIRST:

• Copy the link under the option at the top for presentation
• Go to slide three (titled "What is your Color?") on your Genially
• Press on the blue pencil icon and then the link icon that pops up
• Place YOUR COPIED Mentimeter link where it says "Add the link here" and then be sure to hit the BLUE save button at the bottom.

• Press on the picture that says "BLUE" on it and delete it.
• Go back to your Mentimeter and press on the " Results" or "Embed live results" at the top of the box (where you saw "Presentation" it is under "Participation") and copy the link
• In your Genially, you will go to the "insert" icon on the left (be sure you are at "others" tab at the top of the box) and paste the embed code.
• Adjust the results window that popped up on your screen to fit the blue box.
