SENIOR MAY DAY VIDEO in Google Classroom

SENIOR MAY DAY VIDEO

This week, instead of creating a FlipGrid video, we’re going to focus on creating a May Day video to celebrate YOU with Collins Family.
*Please attach a video to the assignment that has a piece of paper or banner showing what your plans are for next year.
*On the piece of paper, share the name of the university/college you’re planning on attending, or the job you’re planning on working.
*Whatever your plans are, we want to celebrate you on May Day!
*If you know your major, feel free to share, but it’s not required!
*This video will be short … probably around 5 seconds long total.
*See the attached video made by Ms. Blanco and the STLs for an example. We’re going to put all your videos together and create a virtual May Day for the class of 2020.

**If you don't feel comfortable sharing your college/university/job plans for next year, here are some alternative prompts you can respond to. You can pick one or two to answer if this feels more comfortable!
1) What are you planning on studying or majoring in?
2) What is your dream career path? 
3) What city will you be living in next year? 

Alternatively, you can complete this Senior Spotlight Survey. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe4Eb46HNxQ1Y_xxAuiFthJ2jE_JbDM6HnEhVy4HkBogkGe8w/viewform

To get a 4, you must answer all questions correctly for the card you've researched.

1. What is the credit card name?
2. What company issues it?
3. What is the annual fee, if any?
4. What is the APR?
5. What is the max penalty APR?
5. Is there an introductory period with 0% APR? How long is it for?
6. What is the minimum monthly payment? (you may have to Google the card name + minimum monthly payment to find this information, or go to the website to find this)
