For my 21st Century Leadership book I had my students read a leadership/motivational book over a 6 week period. Then the students had to complete 3 tasks using the book including creating their own mini "TED" talk to present to community members.

This is an in class activity having students use Google Sheets or Excel having student create pixel art. I personally take 4 days total out of my schedule for this. This includes a practice activity and then giving them time to make their own creations. There is a practice activity class will do together and then individually students will create their own art based on a theme of their choice. Grading rubric is included. I use this in my digital applications (computer applications) class. Y

Students will do a 4 part project research other cultures/countries fashion. They do a presentation, a summary report, a history paragraph, and draw/color traditional dress for their culture/country There are 4 different grading rubrics for the 4 parts to the project **Some of the presentation requirements might have to be adjusted based on the culture/country your student researches**

A fun twist on a way to look at media or present something. Students create an obituary about a technology item that has "passed away" Rubric Included. I spend 1 class period with my students for this.

We spend Approx. $5 a day, totaling in $20 worth of gi

Another creation of secret santa questions

I used this in my computer class when I had students learning about using the search engine more efficiently. I could also see it being used in a social studies class
