Create a t-shirt -- You decide what is important on the front and the back










Dan Pink wrote about the role of designers:   He quoted Paola Agnelli.   "Designers give us things that we didn't know we needed."

Designs can be a collection of images.

Students are sometimes told, "You need to prepare for the future."   If you don't know what happened in the past, you might repeat the mistakes of the past.

Some students say, "But we learn through our mistakes."  We adults like to point out that we can also learn from OTHER PEOPLE's mistakes... which is also part of history, science, language and math.  Yes, we can learn from mistakes...  Let's try to learn from the mistakes of others.

Teachers are told to fill the brains of young people to prepare them for the future.


HOWEVER
The other side of inhalation is exhalation.
The other side of absorbing information is sharing information
The other side of receiving and learning is producing and creating.

Here are some images that a student has selected.  These images will be placed on a t shirt

The t-shirt maker is ShirtsNTees at Lauderhill Mall.


Here are some other ideas that former teenagers created.

Why not spend time each class day with "Time to Produce" and encourage students to create something?
