This is an activity that helps students combine creative
skills with writing and technology. Students will choose an object
and find another use for it, write a information piece (i.e. newspaper
article, flier, or letter to audience), and create a web page for "Modern
Fashion and Technology." This will satisfy many different curriculum
needs, in the upper grades of elementary schools. Below are links
to the curriculums so you can pair the curriculum with the competency it
applies to.

This project will help the students find fun ways to incorporate many
different areas of study into one activity. It can also be a center
for many projects to branch off of it. The possibilities are endless.
All you need is a little imagination, and a lot of creativity!!
