Netflix Template
Using Netflix template is another creative way for students to show what they know. They imagine a Netflix show related to your content/lesson and then create the overview, episodes, etc… that you would see if you were exploring that show . Click here for a copy of the template.
New Phone… Who dis?
Have students design what a character or historical figure’s phone would look like? What images would they have? What music? What text messages? Who would be in their contacts? What reminders, notes, notifications would they have? Click here for a copy of slide deck template of this activity.
Design a T-shirt, Bumper Sticker, a tattoo, or Cake Writing
Have students show what they know by creating a design to demonstrate their learning. Make it stronger by asking them to explain/support their design with evidence. Some examples could be a t-shirt design, bumper sticker, tattoo design, or writing on a cake. Check out the Donner Party tshirt design from a student of mine in the past (I also made them include important details on this exit ticket).
