Brainstorming Lesson Plans for next week

Contraptions- Gadgets and the Rube Goldberg.
I was thinking of a class going over gadgets and nouns and such. I was thinking of cause and effect relationships. I think it would be cool to get some Wallace and Gromit clips into this class.
Cultural Differences- I think this would be a really good lesson. I would like to show people from all over the world and then show how they live. Maybe Africans, Thai, Americans, Eskimos would be cool I think (literally) It's a class to be researched and developed further.
Telephone Conversations:
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Money and Shopping: I'm thinking I can get them to money manage to buy certain objects. Maybe give them a budget. I think a spreadsheet like paper would be good for this.
Just some thoughts. Oh, and I'm hating myself now because I sold my Google stock. It's at 385 right now. 385! I don't believe I sold it at 305 thinking it would drop. Well, I can't buy now...can I? I don't want to. I'm going to search and find the next Google (that's what everybody says.)
