Have information to impart but need a clever hook for students to interact with the info and make it their own? Want something creative to do with a common core non-fiction text? Appropriate this idea from Dr. Nathan Yao to get students thinking: chart the words. Students won't "get" all of these movie quotes, but here's how to use it for your class:

1. show some from the more popular movies
2. discuss data visualization and charting
3. then unleash them to write their own using your topic

could work for any class. via http://laughingsquid.com/famous-movie-quotes-transformed-into-clever-charts/
