Steps :
1. Explain that inspiration is an idea, experience, or place that makes someone want to create or do something. Write the word INSPIRE in the center of your board/display area.

2. Have students use each letter in the word “inspire” to identify the ideas, places, and experiences that inspire them.

For example, I could be “the Internet,” P could be “my Parents,” S could be “Solar power,” etc. (Once the classroom is “warmed up,” you can shift to ideas and concepts that don’t begin with those letters.)

3. Once the board/display area begins to get filled, have students break out in groups or individually to collect images of people/places/experiences that inspire them.

4. Have students create a self-portrait, collage, or other visual presentation that shows how the images they collected inspire them.

FAQs

1. Can teachers enter artwork on behalf of their classrooms?
Teachers are welcome to enter doodles on behalf of their class 1-10 students as long as the entry form is signed by each student’s parent or guardian.

2. Is there a limit to how many doodles a school or parent can enter?
No limit. Though teachers or parents may enter multiple doodles for their classrooms/family at one time, we only accept one original doodle per student.

3. What happens if two doodles are entered from the same student?
We can only accept one doodle per student. Our judging platform will verify that each doodle entered is in fact a unique entry. If we receive two entries from the same student, we will accept the doodle that was received first.

4. Do you accept group entries?
We do not accept doodles that have been created by more than one student. Each doodle should be created by only one student.

5. Do doodles have to be drawn directly on the entry form?
No. As long as you are able to take a photo/scan copy of the doodle and combine it with the completed entry form, parents and teachers can enter a doodle created on any material.

6. Is the public involved in the voting process?
Yes. Once the entry period is closed and our judges have narrowed the field to the 20 best doodles, the public will be invited to vote online.
