On Thursday, ALL 7th grade students attended the Ghana Project assembly and heard Mustapha Ayana share his story and his volunteering with all of us.  Now it's time to attend the Service Fair where YOU can learn more about this project, as well as other organizations in our community that you can get involved in.  Our global community needs each and every one of us to make a difference in whatever way possible.

During the Service Fair held during FLEX today (Friday 1/30), you must attend at least 3 different tables and complete the chart on the colored worksheet passed out in Flex today. (a copy is attached if needed).  Afterwards, complete the reflection on the back thoroughly. 

You must show this to at least one parent/guardian at home and have them sign their name at the top right corning of the reflection side that you discussed your experiences!  You will not get credit without this signature!  I will inform all families through ParentSquare about this expectation.

On the document you will see a QR code in case your family is interested in donating to the Ghana project.  You can also share this with others, like family and friends, to help gather more support!  One way your family can do this is by sharing the attached video to family and friends!

An added bonus!  The 7th grade social studies teachers will donate $1 for every 7th grade student/parent family who donates! 

To complete this assignment: PLEASE FILL OUT THE ATTACHED GOOGLE FORM SO WE CAN KEEP TRACK OF THE NUMBERS by Wednesday 2/4/26.  Thank you! 😊

We really hope that these experiences inspire you to help improve our Global Community!

Projects are DUE THIS FRIDAY by End of School.  Please be aware NO ADDITIONAL class time will given to work on the project.

STEP 1: Read Lesson 15 in TCI (5 pts)
Sign On with CLEVER
Complete "TO DO" reading (introduction to summary)
Complete "Reading Check In" ONLY (do not complete Reading Notes)
STEP 2: Complete 5-1 Worksheet (5 Pts)
Please complete the following worksheet to organize your thoughts.  
A copy was handed out during class on Wednesday (1/28).
 The completed worksheet is assignment 5 -1 in your notebook.

🖐 Please complete the Google Form below with a thoughtful question you would like to ask our guest speaker from Ghana.

Your homework for this weekend is to work on your 3D Design models.  You should each have a packet of clay and a blank sheet of construction paper cut to fit the BOX YOU WILL BE GIVEN IN CLASS ON MONDAY to complete your design.  Please DO NOT find another box to use as I will be displaying them on the walls and it is much easier when I have the same shape and dimensions of each box to work with. 

In class I will have several 'stations' set up to help in the construction of your design.  I will have hot glue and rubber cement stations to assemble your work. I will also have some random available arts and craft items that may meet your needs. However, I advise you to bring in anything you think you may need to complete your design OR contact Mrs. Appleton in advance to request a special item.  

BE MINDFUL that you will ONLY have the opportunity to work in class for approximately 45 mins to one hour. IF you need more time to complete the project, the rest of the work will need to be completed outside of class. As such having your clay and  background/model designs done in advance is a very good idea! 

PRINTING of your WRITTEN DESCRIPTION: Please make every effort to print your written description at home this weekend.  In order to do this you will need to COPY AND PASTE the information from your Google Slide Deck to a Google Doc.  The write up should be in 11 pt. Font (type of font is your choice) LEFT and RIGHT Margins should be set  at 0.75 on each side. (Please see screenshots below.). IF you are unable to access a printer, please share your Google doc with Ms. Appleton by 8:00 AM on Monday, January 26th. Remember, if you can print your own document, it would be greatly appreciated!

Finally, if you have read this far along for the instructions, make sure to write your favorite song in the private comment of assignment in order to earn the points for this assignment. 

Have a wonderful weekend!

STEP 3: Go back to BOX 2 and write your claim statement

STEP 4: Complete BOX 4 by explaining to your reader how your evidence supports your claim statement.
