The first group selected the "Gamer Emoji", the second the Superman Logo. After measuring, planning, and creating the mural, each group had to select the location for exhibit.

One Word for 2014

One Word for 2014

Theme:
Every New Year's day many people in the US resolve to make a change or reach a goal and as we know too well the resolutions are usually broken in a matter of three weeks.
Why not simplify this idea by choosing one word to guide you in 2014?
One word: we can remember it and focus on it and do it. Then you have meaning and mission with that word that gives you passion and purpose to live throughout the year.
Watch the 3 minute clip from the Today show with guest and motivational speaker John Gordon here: http://www.today.com/video/today/53957503#53957503

How do you choose the one word for you?

Visual Challenge (Objectives):
Choose a single word to guide you in 2014.
Express your word visually in a unique and creative way.

Complete this work by the deadline. Your work will be displayed digitally along with the work of your peers!
