Step 1: Take some time to revisit some old family photos.
Step 2: Select one that you love and upload it to Moodle.
Step 3: Create a funny, or clever caption for the photo. Make sure you describe who is in the photo (cousins, siblings, etc.) and what is happening.
***Remember: Family does not have to mean people that are related to you. If you cannot find a family photo, try to find another photo where you feel like you are a part of a family (for example, best friend).
