Passion Class google slides assignment

For this assignment, we are working with the City of Hayward to create positive responses and solutions to the COVID-19 crisis.  

As many of you have experienced and stated, we are all being inundated by reports, updates, automatic messages, and negative headlines.  This kind of messaging is fair and appropriate given the circumstances we are experiencing. However, we want to provide positivity, build community, and find ways to support one another. The SIC team is working with the City of Hayward to create a website that will be promoted to community members.  

The website is called “Staying IN: Hayward.”

This website will include YOUR ideas for responding to this crisis, and will provide “Hayward-esque” activities people can do from their homes.  

Your assignment: 

 Using Google Slides, you will create an activity/lesson/guideline that we can share with the community.  Your goal is to show the community or teach them how to do this activity. There are a lot of lists circulating online, on social media, etc. on tips for staying healthy, keeping occupied, and entertaining yourself.  We want our activities to be unique from the generic ones that are being circulated. We also want them to be much more DETAILED. Your activity can be in any of the following categories or an entirely new category:

• Food: recipes/ cooking techniques/etc
• Gardens / outdoor nature
• Kids’ activities
• Health and wellness
• Activism
• How to … (here are some examples) 
--home improvement
--Make a movie and embed it in WIX
--Professional looking Instagram post
--Operate google slides and/or Canva
--Do magic
• Pets
• Arts and crafts 
• Organizational tips
• Deep cleaning homes
• Creating a schedule/routine
• How to be a successful student during this crisis

You will create your document in Google Slides.  You should embed video, pictures, graphs, etc. The goal is to make your document fun, colorful, positive! You should take your own vids and pics....do NOT simply be grabbing a bunch of images from the internet or vids from YouTube

Of course you will need to do WRITING for this assignment. Here are the questions for you to answer (FULL big paragraphs...not just one sentence answers)

1. Introduction (tell us who you are, how you are doing, etc)
2. Why did you pick this activity?
3. What are the specific steps involved? (Don’t be vague--we need details about how to do it)
4. What materials are needed? 
5. How does your activity relate to Hayward / Bay Area culture or community?

This assignment is going to have a VERY FAST timeline for getting it done. 
It is due on Tuesday, May 19.

You will all share a first Draft of this assignment on Tues , May 12
