Create a Caricature, South-Park Style: Most high school students are familiar with South Park or at least the style of cartoon character from the popular Comedy Central show. This online activity uses a website to re-create original characters or figures from history using that drawing style. Use this in a 1:1 setting, or take your students to the lab one day and have them make caricatures of different people from the textbook, story, or novel you are reading.
It includes a planning worksheet that can be done without the use of a computer and both teacher and student directions.
*I also included blank templates in case you do not have access to a computer and would like your students to draw or cut/paste items onto their figures.*
Please note: Maturity is a factor with this exercise since the figures are nude to begin with. Use your own discretion for what is appropriate with your class.
It is a fun exercise that helps the students relate more with the character/historical figure and reviews the setting, quotes, and context of the literature/history in a unique way.
For teachers in other content areas: you can also use this to review people in your field (scientists, chefs, business leaders, artists, musicians, and so on).

Terrific application of pop culture and technology to literature and history! Very motivating for students and adding the speech bubble with a quote is a nice touch too.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I've been teaching at my current public high school for twelve years, and have a total of 16 years experience. Most of my experience is teaching high school English and journalism classes; however, for several years I taught an art history class. I teach all levels--from honors students to special education students; therefore, I'm constantly modifying my assignments to fit my students' needs.
