Design a Global Action Figure Research Project | World Cultures PBL | Microsoft
This fun project challenges your students to create a “Barbie & Ken Around the World” action figure. First, they investigate a world culture by filling-in a research guide. Then, they design the attire and accessories for their dolls in a way that reflects their world culture. Project-based learning promotes higher-level thinking and creativity in your classroom. These can be adapted to any world culture and look awesome on display! Teacher slides guide your explanation of the project, and a fill-in rubric makes grading easy! My students always LOVE creating “Global Action Figures”! Your purchase has print & interactive, digital versions of the materials. Made for traditional in-class learning or digital 1:1 classrooms. Everything you need is included!
