Today was the first day of the 2015-2016 school year. The first day is always my least favorite. I have to stand in front of students and go over rules and procedures. BORING! I did try to break it up with a creative drawing activity at the end. 6th grade was asked to create the ultimate robot maid.

7th grade imagined a universe they could enter through their locker.
8th grade created the ultimate vacation location. We really had fun with that one!
This short exercise helped me discover students who had a hard time coming up with ideas, their drawing ability/confidence, and a little glimpse into their personality.
