The Cupcake Color Wheel activity provides a meaningful, memorable way for students to study Color Theory. Used in my Practical and Applied Arts 10- Survey class, it is part of the Interior Design module. Through this activity, students learn color terminology, mixing colors, and gain knowledge and understanding in the concepts of complementary colors, values, and chroma. If this activity is completed as part of a Food Studies class, it provides students an opportunity to gain knowledge and skills in the kitchen basics, and in the preparation of cakes and frostings.

All the students in our school have iPads and I recently had received 2 LEGO robotics kits; I wanted to find a way to mesh the two together. LEGO has a free app (for iPads only) that allows students to program their robot and connect to it via Bluetooth. The goal of this assignment is to learn about basic function of the LEGO EV3 robot. This includes the motor, color sensor and ultrasonic sensor. The main objective is to learn how to program, or "code", the robot to perform various functions using the "LEGO Mindstorms Programming App".

The following is a unit plan for Food Studies 7. It includes outcomes on the following:
- FS7.1 To apply independent learning skills in the preparation of nutritious foods
- FS7.2 To understand and practice safety in the preparation of and storage of food
- FS7.3 To apply independent learning skills for basic baking
- FS7.4 To apply independent learning skills for basic cooking
Rubrics, assessments and evaluation overview is also included in the unit plan.

Students entering grade seven will be required to take at least three Practical and Applied Arts (PAA) survey courses before completing grade nine:
- Only modules from PAA curricula can be used in PAA survey courses. Modules must be used from three different curricula.
- Appropriate safety concepts should be integrated throughout survey courses.
- Each course must be a minimum of 50 hours.
- Modules for suggested Middle Level courses are generally from introductory level modules, although intermediate modules may also be used, providing the prerequisites are met.
- Some modules should not be used in Middle Level survey courses for safety or reasons of developmental appropriateness.

The following is a unit plan for Life Transitions 7. The following outcomes are covered:
- LTR7.1 To develop an understanding of stress and how to manage it
- LTR7.2 To acquire and practice the skills needed to progress from dependence to independence and setting personal goals to create balance in their lives

Rubrics, assessments and overviews are also included with the unit plan.

The following has I Can Statements for the following:
- Kitchen and Food Safety
- Baking Basics
- Baking with Yeast

The article "Chicago Firefighters Battle Recycling Plant Blaze" by Commander Max Walchuk of the Chicago Fire Department details how nearly 200 Chicago Fire Department personnel required almost 45 pieces of fire suppression and rescue equipment to fight a spectacular magnesium-fueled blaze that broke out at a metal recycling complex on August 31, 1998.

The school division has purchased a garmet printer. The following resource has the links to the "Grade 7 Sewing Basics" for I can statements and the link to Clothing, Textile and Fashion Curriculum Document.

Students work in pairs to create venn diagrams that will show the differences and similarities between an online and an offline community. The class brainstormed examples together, creating a large list on the board. Examples include: twitter, vine, Instagram, the school volleyball team, places people work, a youth group center. Once pairs have selected their communities, they used Creatly.com to create a venn diagram that showed their ideas about how each community is unique yet has some things in common. When students completed their venn diagram, they posted it on a Small Group in Edmodo to share it with the class. Students then individually commented on each of the other pairs diagrams, telling them one thing they liked about the diagram and one thing that they think might have been done better.

"The Safety Construction Orientation Training (SCOT) program is an interactive, online-training course composed of 13 modules, each focused on a different fundamental aspect of worksite safety. SCOT is convenient, easy-to-use, easy-to-understand, and is interactive and accessible as the program is available on the web. A user can purchase and take the program via this website. The program begins with an introductory module that describes the content, purpose and important practical information necessary to help participants navigate through the training experience. The program provides the basics in construction safety and requires 100% mastery of 13 modules which take approximately three to five hours to complete." - www.scsaonline.com
