  1. Technology Scavenger Hunt: Look around your home or classroom and try to find as many items from the technology words list as you can. Once you find them, draw a picture of each item and write its name next to it. Share your drawings with a friend or family member and explain what each item does!

  2. Create Your Own Computer: Use cardboard, paper, and other craft materials to make a model of a computer. Include a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and any other parts you remember. Label each part with its name and function. Show your model to your classmates and explain how each part works together.

  3. Technology Word Story: Write a short story using at least five of the technology words you learned. Your story could be about a day in the life of a computer, an adventure with a flash drive, or anything else you can imagine.
