HOOK: (10 minutes)
Welcome to class
- Take attendance
We are going to play a quick game of wordle!
- To play wordle, there is a word and students guess based on the number of letters.
- If the letter is correct and in the correct space write it in green.
- If the letter is in the word, but not in the right spot, write it in yellow.
- If the letter is not in it at all, write it in black.
- They get 6 tries.
- The word of the day is: MODEL.
PROJECT INTRODUCTION: (50 minutes)
Today we are going to begin working on our major project.
- The project is sticker creation.
You are going to create a sticker that you feel represents you and your personality.
Review concept statements here:
- Mrs. Johnson is ______________ and ______________ like a __________.
- Today we are going to start with our rough draft. I have circle and square options of stickers for you to work with.
As you can see, there are blanks for you to explain how you are using each of the elements of design in your sticker.
- You need to use them all.
- Ex.: I am using space by making my sticker full of lots of different things with minimal space because I am a busy person.
- Show the students where each type of sticker will be.
- Remind them that they know where all the supplies that they need are
- Put on some music while they work
After a little bit, when students are wrapping up, tell them that they can come check off with you and get their actual sticker to start working on.
- The sticker paper is available to the students. They will need to cut it themselves into the shape and size of sticker that they want.
