  1. "MY FAVORITE THINGS" Chart in DIAGRAMS.NET: To make your "Word Web" into a usable piece of information, we will be recreating your chart using draw.io DIAGRAMS. LEARNING TOOLS were outlined above in the video link. PLEASE MAKE YOUR DIAGRAM SYMMETRICAL. EXTRA POINTS FOR ADDING COLOR, CHANGING FONTS, OR OTHERWISE MAKING YOUR DIAGRAM SHINY AND FANCY.
  2. "THE TECH LAB CLASSROOM SEATING CHART": Please use your new diagramming skills to create a chart that VISUALLY DEMONSTRATES the Tech Lab and all of the seats (and possibly students) in the room. Make sure to include and label important things like DOORS and BIG TVS and TEACHER'S DESK. You may get up and walk around a little, but DO NOT BE DISRUPTIVE in this activity! If you don't know everyone's name, you are allowed to simply put "STUDENT."
  3. "MY FAVORITE THING IN 2023/4"- From your chart created above, select ONE of the COMPANIES OR BRAND NAMES on the outside of your diagram to be your FAVORITE THING. Then, do some research regarding that favorite thing. You can illustrate all of the following information in a diagrams.net diagram in the same way your did your FAVORITE THINGS CHART above, or you can be creative. The only rule is that your information should be easily accessible and understood!:
    • The name of your FAVORITE THING COMPANY/BRAND NAME
    • A copy of the LOGO of your company.
    • The physical address and telephone number of your company.
    • The website address of your company.
    • The CEO or President of your company.
    • The TOTAL SALES of your company in the year 2022.
    • The YEAR that your company was founded.
