5)+Off+The+Grid

=The Off the Grid Project can be completed in three steps. It will be due on Tuesday of next week. This entire project will be presented to the class. The VoiceThread or Prezi is worth the majority of the points so be sure to get it completed on time.=

=**2) Generate a list of** 20 things **you can do to help save the planet. You can find several premade lists by Googling. Insert your list on your page and then create a Wordle or Tagexedo from the articles or websites you used to generate your list (you can also cut and paste your list).**=


 * For example:**
 * 1) Recycle**
 * 2) Take the school bus**
 * 3) Buy second hand clothing**
 * 4) Eat more organic fruits and vegetables**

=**3) Create a VoiceThread (You may use Prezi instead) of at least 10 slides that goes over at least three ways we are hurting our planet and at least five ways we can help our planet. The remaining two (or more) slides should cover the Off The Grid episode of 30 Days. For example: "What you learned" or "How the experience changed Vito and/or Jahari's lives".**=  You will presenting your VoiceThread to the class so be sure to get it done!  = = =**For extra credit: Your VoiceThread can have your voice (or a computer generated voice) embedded on every slide. You will need to either record this part at home or in the computer lab after school. If you do not have a microphone on your computer at home, record into your phone and place the files in your Dropbox or email them to yourself so you can access them from a school computer. I will be more than happy to help you record during 6th or 7th period.**=

== **If you have no access to a microphone, try vozMe, an online tool that turns your text into an mp3 download. Then simply upload your mp3 into your VoiceThread.** ==

**If you are having trouble logging into VoiceThread, I have created a class account. See the picture below for the login information.**
