As a group, have students identify moments, events, and experiences that have inspired them. (Thought starters for 2017: Million Woman March, Hurricane and wildfire relief efforts, \\#DoSomethingForNothing, \\#metoo, Wonder Woman, Fenty, Hidden Figures’Oscar acceptance, Hamilton, and many more from current events, sports, and your own cities, communities, and neighborhoods)  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>2. Once you have a fairly comprehensive list going, ask students to do a little research to identify some individuals and/or “catalyst moments” that made the events on your list possible.  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>3. Have them speculate: How did they do it? What drove them? What or who helped them make it happen? (Note: actual “proof” or “the right answer” is not necessary here – this should be a fun and fast-paced call and response.)  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>4. Now ask students to write down or share a vision they have for themselves to do something inspiring or positive.  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>5. Then ask students to either a) write a paragraph or b) create a drawing/piece of art that explains their vision and how they might accomplish it.  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>6. Bring it all together by having students use their vision work to create a “wall of inspiration” for others in the school. The student body can show support/love/ agreement of students by attaching stickers, marking “+1”, signing their names, or photographing sections to post on social media (with a hashtag of the classroom’s choosing) .  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Activity   \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Let’s Start Doodling!  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Now it’s time for your students to share their inspirations and turn them into a Google Doodle!  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Objective:  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>• Help students to take the learnings from the brainstorm activity and translate it to a Google Doodle.  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Materials:  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>• Pencils, art supplies, collage materials Optional: video display capabilities  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>Steps:  \u003C/p>\u003Cp>1.
