A6:Mic, Music playing as Ss are announced as winners, Awards
I like that one! A6: An academy award created by S's would be cool too. Involve the art teacher.
A6 paper plate awards - use these often to celebrate Ss. Each kid decorates paper plate and I write their award. Funny, serious, etc.
why stop at the Oscars? Allow Ss to design end of quarter awards- from certificates to ribbons or spirit sticks- set the purpose.
A6 (the cool thing about the LEGO Oscars is they could easily modify them to represent their own award, own personality...)
A5: design the set, the awards, the centerpieces, the outfits- duck tape runway designs would be fun
A6: old books to paint and make tacky, sparkly, and golden. etc

Q7: Plickers a great tool for voting.
I'm thinking zombies. And best brain eater goes to...
A7 - Would it be out of the question to throw tomatoes?
You do that too, huh? And when they go on clearance--I WILL FIND A WAY TO USE IT.
Create a poster with minimal words - just a title and 1 or 2 images. Have Ss create the trailer for the movie.
I wasn't hungry until now.
A7: Students vote - Google form, Polleverywhere, Office Mix
A7 Secret ballot, complete with math teachers counting votes. Have the principal be the host. https://t.co/XW1MnhZQIz
Q7: How would you conduct the voting on the awards? Student vote? Through what means? Bring in a panel to watch the pitches?
A7: Use technology to have another class vote on the winners..from across the country! Broaden the audience with GHO or Skype
Q7: After the final pitches, Kahoot, Quizizz, or Google Forms!
a6: connect it to current films and let Ss come up with their own interpretations. Retell/summarize/main idea/details. So many skills
Certainly not the Bachelor
Now I'm laughing. It would be memorable. Might lose the job... And go to jail...
I knew you jump in with some cool tech tools!
A7 let ss create sealed invite to other staff members important to them. show them other care. definitely an invited panel
A7: create a Google form; panel discussions; maybe heads up 7-up 😉
A6 Creating film props would be a great lesson-remember it's creative thinking ex. Soda w/ Star Wars https://t.co/6vgJJOAnLZ

Target dollar bins and the Dollar Tree, Teacher's Besties!! Such good pirate treasures!
A7 student vote would create ss ownership and pride.
A7 Edmodo Poll, Google Form, Kahoot, Plickers, the tech for voting is endless!
A7: I think it all about utilizing what is at your disposal. Can make it high tech but sometimes simplifying it is good too!
A7: Google forms with only me and my co teacher seeing the results. Steel suitcase- the whole thing. Gonna be epic!
A7: Broadcast live via Google Hangout and have audience vote
A7: Voting must be done through student blogs. They must write and their writing will be judged by a panel of Ts based on how funny
Probably have Ss vote through
A7: Got to to Kahoot to have results on the big screen. Google Forms if you wanted statistical data breakdowns.
This is fanastic! I triple dog dare ya!
BOO-Ya!I was on a Target end cap clearance this weekend. Step back people, don't wanna' let my elbows get ya'! https://t.co/LogiILIdwr

That's probably how I'd do it, Brandon -- depends on how many classes I've got. Love the data, though.
A7: I think it would be amazing to have Ss write explanations then have community vote.
They used to announce names at restaurants, always good time to use Donner. "Donner Party! Your table's ready
His was photoshopped and yours wasn't.
A7 Town Hall Meeting style with open debate! Or a pirate ship vote....Hmmm
A7 Make acrostic poems w/ S names for nomination ballots.
A7: I think I'd have to take a nod from & have students produce of their art & vote via GoogleForm 4 best production
A7 do there have to be winners? What if it's just a night of honors where everyone was top of the game!
Google Forms is(are?) actually how some of my schools vote for Who's Who.
Now I don't think I'll be able to look at Chuck this summer with a straight face.
A7: what's that voting tool that creates a word cloud as people cite...that'd be cool!
A7: Twitter polls! Ask the people!
Yep. I teach AP Stats. Getting all that easy data to look at would be too cool to pass up.
Cool idea! https://t.co/1IyuERuifW
A7: I think I'd have to take a nod from & have students produce of their art & vote via GoogleForm 4 best production
A7: Videos on school website and allow school to cast votes. Also could use LMS.
