5. PSA Project
With your group, you’ll be creating a PSA about the challenges that your immigrant group has faced.
Let’s review the requirements and the rubric.
Everybody in your group needs ONE white handout.

6. Group Roles: Yellow Handout – One per Group
Leader
Recorder
Technology Specialist
Timekeeper
For groups of 3, I would recommend that the leader and the timekeeper are one person.
Discuss and assign roles.

7. Planning & Collaboration: Pink Handout – One per Group
Work together to complete this step.
Remember: all members must be actively involved in the discussion and decision making. The recorder should be the person taking notes on the sheet.
Your Goal: By the end of class, have a “rough draft,” also called “storyboard,” of the order of your photos, the text and where it is going to go, the timing, the music, etc.

8. Summarizer Answer the following: Which job did you pick?
On a scale of 1-5 (1 is the worst, 5 is the best), how well did you do your job today?
What do you know you want to include in your PSA?
What questions do you have about your PSA?
