Seasonal Pixel Art in MS Excel or Google Sheets - Winter, Spring, Summer & Fall
By Innovations in Technology
Lesson Overview
Need a fun way to introduce Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets to upper elementary or middle school students? This seasonal bundle lets students learn the basics of Microsoft Excel (or Google Sheets) as they create pixel art using the program. First, they'll create a quick pixel art from a given example and then they'll create their own! This bundle includes the full lesson for each season: Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. These are each sold separately too, if you prefer. These are also fun lessons to use if you just need something for a one day lesson.
I've used this with 7th and 8th graders who used their free time to create even more art! I hope your students have as much fun as mine did learning Excel or Google Sheets!

FBA Interview Forms
FBA Interview Forms offer a comprehensive approach to gathering essential information from parents, teachers, and students for conducting a functional behavior assessment.
These forms empower educators to develop personalized behavior intervention plans with a holistic understanding of the student's environment and perspectives.
Behavior Observation Form (s)
Behavior Observation Form (s) will walk you through the observation process. The forms will help you know what to look for as you observe, and assist you in breaking down what you are seeing in a way that will help you write a quality FBA.
Done correctly, your direct observation of the student (ideally across 2-3 settings) will allow you to compare what you observe with the interview information. It will also help you develop a definition of the target behavior that is observable and measurable (operational definition) and assist you in developing a functional hypothesis of why the student is engaging in the problem behavior.
FBA Template
If you aren’t confident in your ability to complete any of the components of a functional behavior assessment, then this FBA Template is for you.
The included Components of a Functional Behavior Assessment document will walk you through and offer examples along the way.
