Mental Illness Investigation
You and your group will be responsible for researching
a Mental Illness. You will be creating 1. A Fact sheet on
this mental illness for the rest of the class. 2 A mask that shows how the
mental illness is perceived and how you see the world if you have this mental illness.
3 A personal reflection based on the word you have chosen and 4. a simulation
event for at least two other classmates to try. You will be presenting this mental illness,
mask and activity to the class.
We will be working
on this project in stages.

fairly short answers think about writing a brochure only the most important
information.

develops/where it can come from.

they Call/ Contact? What do these locations do for them?

be ones that you find on your own.
Use Google
research to post the links to your research.
