Week Five Blogging Challenge

It's time to have some fun with emojis! What's so great about emoji's you might ask? The great thing about emojis is that they are a universal language - people from all around the world understand the same meaning for each emoji, no matter what language they speak! 😊 🙌 💛

Pick one of the four emoji challenges to blog about this week:

1. Emoji Story Prompt - go to byrdseed.com/emoji2. You'll see one random emoji. Press "and then" to continue writing your story. Once you have written it, take a screenshot of your emoji and post it on your blog for people to see. 

2. Emoji Guessing Game - make a quiz! You could either create a Kahoot, google slides quiz, or just as a typed quiz on your blog post. Use the emojis to spell out things that they have to guess - it might be book or movie titles, foods, countries... whatever you can think of!

3. Emoji Maths - go to solvemoji.com, where emojis are used in maths puzzles! Try some of these puzzles and get some inspiration from this website. Then, create some of your own maths puzzles. Here's a google doc tutorial from another teacher to help you make a post of your own.

4. Emoji Art - get creative! You could hand draw an emoji, take a picture of it and upload it to your blog, or make your own emoji on a google doc. You could even go to http://emoji.ink/ to create an artwork using emojis - then take a screenshot of it. 

Submit the URL of your blog post about emojis to this link here so other people can see your fantastic work. Then, check out some other blogs and leave them some feedback!
