Doodle for Google contest

Ever wonder where Google gets their "Doodles" (the graphics that play on the Google logo) from?  Well, sometimes it's from students.  Once a year, Google holds a contest for students in grades K-12.  This year's theme is  "When I grow up, I hope..."

Why not share this with your students and give them a shot?  There are categories for grade levels 8-9 and 10-12.  Their are great prizes, including college scholarships and a visit to Google headquarters.

Here's the info.

And here's a video about last year's winners.

And here's one of the cleverest Doodles of all time-- a playable PacMan game.
