2018 LIFE (Live*Imagine*Fulfill*Experience) Teen Expo

2018 LIVE-IMAGINE-FULFILL-EXPERIENCE Teen Expo is open to ALL Teens! Check out the highly-interactive activities, learning and FUN! Earn Service learning hours by being part of the planning committee, or  by attending and actively participating, and sharing what you learned with your peers.  You can also assist with clean up efforts after the event to earn service learning hours.  

LIFE Teen Expo (LTE) brings a variety of opportunities:  college and career readiness, military organizations, tips on starting a business, financial literacy, social outreach programs, sustainability and importance of being eco-friendly, repurposing donated items, and more! 

Preparation Instruction:
Sign up through the contact person listed at the bottom of this post. Inform her of what your interest is for your participation (planning, sharing knowledge, clean-up).
At the event, enroll to participate in the workshops and be counted for the School Spirit Award contest.
Get support from one of your teachers who will agree to grant you the hours upon successful completion of the project.

Activity Instruction:
Sign in and out at the event to validate your participation.
Follow the coordinator's  directions as to what you are expected to do. 
If you are earning hours by sharing knowledge, here are some options: Slide show of photos, social media sharing, classroom presentations, posters, song-writing, poetry writing, wrting for school paper or in a letter to the editor of a school paper, or local paper. Ask your sponsoring teacher if  your idea for sharing is acceptable. 

Reflection Instruction:
Reflection will depend on activities and workshops students participated in.  Share your personal experience and what you learned from the various presenters and booths. Basically address: What did you do? What did you learn? How do you think this project made a difference in improving life of teens?  Do you think the LIFE Teen Expo should be an annual event? Why or Why not?

Justify how many hours you think you deserve based on your participation. For example: if you were part of the planning committee, you may have more hours than someone who attended and shared your knowledge via social media. Remember that service learning must have a service aspect as well as a learning aspect.
