EXAMPLE: "Who's the fastest of them all Text Message Challenge!"

GUIDED PRACTICE:  Each student must write a brief 3 sentence  paragraph describing what they paln to do afterschool today.  Next, each student selects 5 people, to text message the paragraph on a cell phone.  The people selected should have varying levels of text message capability and be of various ages.  For example, a parent versus a student.  Next students will use a stopwatch to time how long it takes each person they have selected to type and send the text message.  Have students record those times and graph them on a chart.
