Sanctuary Month Community Outreach

Sanctuary Month Community Outreach

Sanctuary Incorporated of Guam Celebrates 48 Years of Service by hosting a Community Outreach at the Agana Shopping Center on Saturday November 16, 2019 from 10:00am – 2:00pm

Preparation Instruction:
All students are invited to attend this free event, but students need to get permission from a teacher to attend the Community Outreach for the purpose of earning service learning hours. All students need to check in at the service learning table Saturday November 16, 2019 between the hours of 10:00am – 2:00pm. Students will be given a passport and must visit all educational outreach tables and get their passports stamped. 

Activity Instruction:
In order to earn service learning hours, students will need to share what they learned with peers who did not attend. This can be done by doing a class presentation in the week following Sanctuary's Community Outreach, making and sharing a poster, or a slide show of photos taken, or writing a song. Students can also use social media to share the educational messages. Be creative but remember that the service is the sharing! 

Reflection Instruction:
In order to earn service learning hours, a reflection needs to be turned in to a teacher who can input the hours into Power School. You need to address: What did you do? What did you learn? How was this an example of public service? 

Learning Standards/Objectives:
