Figma - 27 FigJam activities to spark creativity | Figma
David from Figma presents five Figma templates designed to boost student engagement and creativity in classrooms. These templates are part of a larger collection of 27 activities available on Figma's blog. The templates are categorized into five sections: building classroom community, making language and history come alive, visualizing STEM concepts, taking creative brain breaks, and checking for understanding. Each section is exemplified by a specific template. For building community, the 'Let Me Introduce Myself' template helps students connect and collaborate. In language and history, 'Book Review Cards' allow students to share insights and foster class-wide connections. The 'Base 10 Math Lesson' template in the STEM section makes abstract math concepts interactive and engaging. For creative breaks, the 'Croc Charm' activity encourages creativity through designing shoe charms. Lastly, the 'Self-Reflection' template in the understanding section uses star ratings and emojis for students to express their learning and reflections.
