=Welcome to my ED 280 Wiki!= Objective: I want my students to make a get a pizza box and completely decorate it with things that appeal to them. Then write a three page paper about the different things pasted on the box and explain why these things relate to who they are. After they turn in their projects I want them to post a paragraph on how this project made them realize something new about themselves to my blog.

Grades: High School

Materials:
 * pizza box (medium)- you can get one from any pizza place (pizza hut, papa johns, dominos).
 * magazines- cut out pictures and paste them on the box.
 * glue
 * anything that will make the box creative and stand out (glitter, macaroni, leaves).

Process:
 * Place items on pizza box in a creative way.
 * Cover the whole pizza box with things (aside from the bottom of the box). I do not want to see that its a pizza box.
 * After you write the paper please place it inside the box p ost a paragraph on how this project made them realize something new about themselves to my blog at [|ed280blogspot].

The Reason For the Project: To have a chance to get to know my students better and see how life affects them outside of the classroom setting. They will also get the chance to learn something about themselves and how creative they can be.
