Start off with some basic definitions:
What is a font? How and why are they created?
What is a logo? What and Why?
What is a website?
I doubt anyone in 6th grade has a clue about what they are. Explain what the differences are, maybe showing them how you can create two completely different 'looks' with the same text.
I've gotten my nephew (he's in 4th grade) excited about Photoshop and SketchUP. I just showed him some basic editing tools and the layout, now he can just have fun playing (like he's taught himself how to make a skate park in 3D in SU).
Keep it fun and simple. duhdesign has some good ideas above.
