Now that my 8th-grade students have acquired an amazing amount of skills using technology, I decided to switch up they way we end our year. For their final project, I want to give them choice and freedom to create. I saw a social media post last fall by Lisa Highfill about a hyperdoc
she created called "Show What You Know." Upon investigating, I discovered her awesome website!
I decided to use this format and tweak it to fit my 8th-grade students. Most of the choices review technology skills we have already used like Green Screen by Do Ink, Scratch, We Video and Wix. I also included some news tools that I believe my students could explore and create with independently.

One important item I added was the #Let Me Take a Selfie Video Project a colleague learned about at our state technology conference in 2015. I re-designed and slightly adjusted the assignment into a hyperdoc and added to this bingo card. This is a really fun assignment. It also adds more guidance and structure for students who prefer a choice like this.
My students seem really excited to have variety, choice, and freedom to create! I cannot wait to see what they create!
