Decide on a passion-based theme for your unit. (Skateboarding to teach landforms, simple machines, geometry, bios of skateboarders, geography of where they live, etc.) 7. Create a topical map and then a subject map (choose one or two areas to develop learning activities)[| Mind Mapping Tools] 8. Decide on a kickoff activity -Arouse students’ curiosity and interest with stimulating introduction. Consider visual display of theme as well as introductory activities. 9. Create 2-3 learning activities that teach the objectives you selected from standards. Use Web 2.0 tools as the participatory medium. How will you evaluate mastery of the objectives? Make sure your activities are cross curricular in nature. 10. Decide on a culminating event. Make sure your event includes others and highlights student created artifacts.
