      • You do not have to include your name on the paper, but each student will complete their impact statement to turn in. The IMPACT statements will be reviewed for approval and then put on display in our building
      • Like art? draw your name or the work IMPACT in block letters and inside the letters include words that describe how you will make an impact
      • Not an artist? randomly brainstorm or word list how you will make an impact
      • Advisors turn in statements in marked "IMPACTMAKER" box near faculty mailboxes

    • Featured Idea:
      • Wheel Connect: 
        • Project this "spin the wheel" CLICK HERE
        • Tell students to get out cell phones if they have them!
        • Divide students into 2 equal lines, parallel to and facing one another so that each student is paired with one another
        • Spin the wheel, for 90 seconds students will discuss with their partner the topic the wheel lands on (BOTH students get to talk/share with one another for only 90 seconds total)
        • After 90 seconds, have students in 1 line rotate to the right one person while the other line remains still
        • Spin the wheel for a new topic (repeat this process until students end up with their original partner)
        • Now Play!
