__**Activity #2:**__ Working with Images: today we will be working with images as we create PSA's, etc. We will be using pics4learning.comas well as bighugelabs.com
 * step #1 - find images that we will be working with
 * step #2 - crop or adjust them if needed
 * step #3 - bring images into BHL and create PSA's
 * step #4 - send final product to Pete, who then shares them with the larger group (everyone wins)

How could you use what you've learned in this activity to teach and promote 21st-century skills?

__**Activity #3:**__ Take a look at the images available at http://storybird.com/ How could you use this site to teach and promote 21st century skills? If time permits create an account for yourself.

 * What are the rewards that you can give to the students for positive behavior?
 * What are the consequences that you can give to the students for negative behaviors?
 * How do kids know what behaviors are "okay" with you?
 * What strategies work well short term, but undermine long-term HWR?
 * What behavior policies are in place at your school?
