The Rules (Apply as many as possible)

2.Something kids do rather than sit and listen

1.Something that is fun for most kids 2.Something that has various levels of challen •to which interested students can escalate

A Rap State Song • Design a state motto/logo

• Travel game (find clues to get to destination - like •

Carmen Sandiego) • Create a limerick/poem • •

•

• Major events that took place in the state (Wright

Brothers @ Kittyhawk)

Eight times eight went out the door Came back in married as sixty-four

Nine times three went to heaven Came back to earth as twenty-seven

Limericks

There once was a number named eight Who thought he was something quite great But when divided by four he was two And his new size made him feel blue.

The “take away” message of infusion is:

No matter what you do, or how routine your job isÉ

...you should always try to do every thing possible to make it interesting!
