*  As a community you have come together to create a powerful backlight performance and I can't wait for you to showcase it to the community.

HOUR OF CODE:  Using the padlet reflect on your participation and learning to create your own game.

YOU MATTER:
The YOU MATTER Manifesto is a call to action. Before we can convince anyone else that we matter, we must first convince ourselves. You are called upon to acknowledge and put to use the gifts that have been entrusted to you. Empower yourself and realize the importance of contributing to the world by living your genius. Mattering is a process, not an event. It has no expiration date; it’s a new way of life. Knowing that we matter is essential to our existence. Using the You Matter Manifesto you will be continuing to build upon changing our mindset and moving through our learning journey.
-inspired by Angela Maiers-
Use the padlet to create you own manifesto to yourself

The ONE:  INSPIRATIONAL INDIVIDUALS AROUND THE WORLD: Who inspires you? How did they inspire to change or to reflect on something in your life.  Why do they inspire you? How has this person's story impacted you as a person?
