On the first day of school, making nametags is just another starting activity. This year, I thought it would be interesting to connect the idea that ‘how we do anything is who we do everything’ and have students try to carefully make their nametags with extra care. I think it was a smart way to start the year!

Useful links for teachers:

This site holds the resources for Innovative Arts class, a class that replaced our technology class in our middle school. Students learn to create as engineers, designers, and more. At the same time, we are learning about our brains/mindsets (‘Puzzle‘), engage technology (‘Shift‘) and the creative process (‘Create‘).

New resources are being added constantly, so I send out a weekly roundup email with all of the new resources. Sign up to stay in the loop.
