A First Week Activity ...  Google Doodles

8/25/2015

Looking for a good first week activity for your students to do so you can get to know them?  Have them draw Google Doodles!  These could showcase things they like and/or things they did over the summer months.  Google actually has a contest every year and awards various levels of students.  Find information HERE.

The past two years I have asked students to create a sketch, using a blank sheet of computer paper and color, to showcase the things they are passionate about or to tell a story of what happened over their summer break.  I have been blown away by the creativity the students show as well as the detail they put into the sketch.  I have learned a great deal about them through the images and figures they create.

Here are a few of my favorites over the last 2 years.
