"Peach"ure This! OK... so it's a bad play on words, but hopefully it got your attention.

The kids created illustrations using different types angles on paper, made a digital copy, uploaded it to photopeach.com where they created a multimedia slideshow and quiz, then embedded it on their blog making the assessment/quiz available to the public. 
Below is another idea using action phrases in sentences.
More ideas... using it on the IWB.
