The Computational Thinking lesson plan incorporates math with technology. There is a review over what has happened in Algebra I that goes along with coding Bee-Bots. There is a worksheet with 19 questions that the answer gives you a code to the Bee-Bot. So, students are reviewing math skills while integrating new technology and coding skills.

Chatterpix is a great way to introduce the class in an entertaining way. It animates any picture you put on and allows you to voice over it, so you could have a talking lion introduce you to the class. However, I wasn't as creative with mine and just used my face. This can be a good tool to use instead of just simple icebreakers.

Smore is a great way to create custom flyers for certain occasions. I created mine as if I was having an open house for parents to come meet me and see what's happening in the daily lives of their kids. I wanted it to be very welcoming to see and show that it is a great environment in the classroom. Students can also use it to create flyers on their own.

The Project Based Learning lesson plan was awesome because it got students to create ideas on their own. Their project was to survey the class and others about their own personalized topic. Then, they had to represent their data with the best choice of graph. After that, each kid would present to the class and explain what they found and why they chose the graph they did. This way students get to be active, unique, and using math skills.
