The ASCII alphabet is based off of the binary code. Our math is usually done is Base 10 which uses ten digits, 0-9. In binary there are only two digits, 0 & 1, base 2. The ASCII alphabet converts the Base 2 numbers into letters. Check out this resource and try it with your students. They will love it! ![]() 2. Check out this cool Google Draw document! Students design a tattoo that would describe the character in the story. What elementary student would not love this task! Click on the image to open the document. Then you will need to go to File->Make a Copy to have your own version. If you like this you can find this resource and more at Engaging Students Google Resources. ![]() 3. Recently, Amherst County started to go through branding. Use this as an opportunity to help your students understand copyright. See if your students can identify brands with only seeing a partial part of the logo. You are welcome to use this slide show I created as an example or create one that is more kid friendly. Can you identify all these logos? ![]() 4. Have you ever created sand art? I use to love this particular craft but I have to admit it is very messy! Well, don't give up!
