Mire este video y úselo como inspiración para crear su propia definición de economía.

5/6 Link to Definition of Economy Video

You can draw it on paper, the driveway, in Kami, or whatever is easiest for you. You can turn it in with Kami, send me a photo of your work.

Puedes dibujarlo en papel, en el camino de entrada, en Kami o en lo que sea más fácil para ti. Puedes entregarlo con Kami, enviarme una foto de tu trabajo.

I have attached a template for Kami, if you want to create it there.

He adjuntado una plantilla para Kami, si quieres crearla allí.

You should be able to click this link, then open with Kami--You will need to screen shot your work or download it to your device because Schoology is not working today.

WALK THE PLANK GAME

Tuesday: WATCH Me FIRST--This explains your choices

This is a non-graded assignment, but it will be worth your time to complete this challenge, because you are MAKING HISTORY right now. You are part of a HISTORICAL EVENT.

Choice 1: Create a video to explain the pandemic to your past self or someone else in your household. Watch the example video to help inspire you.

You can't actually tell them that it is COVID19.

YouTube Video Example. This is rated PG and is pretty funny.

Choice 2: Create a Time Capsule to capture this event in history.

This is easier if you can open it from Schoology with Kami, but you should be able to open this with Kami as well. If you can't, you can write notes on a different piece of paper or in a Google Document.
