Pixabay.com is a popular website for copyright friendly images. If you've used it before you know it's a go-to source for finding images...but there's a little work involved: 1) open Pixabay.com in a separate Chrome tab; 2) Enter your keywords in the search box; 3) Click on an image to select; 4) Click the free download button; 5) Click Download; 6) Click the 'I'm not a robot' box; 7) download the image to your device; 8) upload the image to your project. That's a lot of clicking for one image, especially for younger students who are developing their keyboarding skills.
But there's an easier way! Pixabay is available as a Google Add-on. Open Google Docs, Click on Add-Ons >Get Add-ons > Enter Pixabay in the Search Box and Select it to make it an Add-On. Now it will always be in your Add-On list.

1) Click on Add-ons and select Pixabay
3) Select an image and it pops into your doc along with the image link URL.
And we'll call that DONE!
