Your mission, whether or not you chose to except it, is to create a survival plan for your family. What supplies would your family need in the event of a natural disaster? What will each family member need to know (i.e. a meeting place, etc.)
Directions: Post your survival plan (a Power Point that may include videos, pictures, etc. -- ask Mr. Hermance for help if you need to). What supplies, tips/strategies, etc. would your family need to survive a natural disaster.
After each person has posted their survival plan, each one of you will go to the comments section and leave feedback. Will their plan be successful? What suggestions do you have? Did they forget anything?
Your Power Point will need to be uploaded to slideshare.net.

Plagiarism will result in a zero for this assignment. It is also an expectation that you proof read your response to ensure correct grammar, spelling and punctuation. Blogger has a spell check tool. As you approach the end of your ninth grade year, it is also an expectation that you will independently self-advocate to Mr. Hermance if you need help with any part of this assignment or utilizing the blog.
