PHYSICAL EDUCATION/HEALTH
Being active every day, in as many ways as possible is important during a pandemic lockdown.
How do individuals aim for at least 2 ½ hours of moderate (or 1 ¼ hours of vigorous physical activity) spread throughout the week when confined to their homes?
MUSIC
Life looks very different right now COVID-19 has millions around the world stuck indoors. Festivals, clubs, and even house parties are banned in many cities, leaving musicians (and music lovers) housebound and searching for creative outlets.
Using all your creative energy create an app or write a song that will inspire people to make beautiful music.
ART
With the extra time spent indoors, artists are stepping up to help us all pass the time.
Create a drawing, painting, or collage and prepare it to be shared on a social media site like facebook or Instagram using the appropriate hashtag.
