Reflections: Week 11 and 12

We started off week 11 by getting into 3 groups and looking up different terms that had to do with environmental literacy. We had to define them in a way that a young person could understand. It was harder than I thought it would be. Then each group sent it to the next for them to make adjustments. We then watched a video called The Story of Stuff. It talks about the production of things and how they get places, and where they go. It was very interesting! Then Dr. V brought in a few things for us all to look at while in groups and we had to make a list of things that they could be used for. It was so funny to see the things that people came up with! Very creative minds! We had our fourth quarter of our read 'n' seeds. It went by really fast!
Week 12 we started out with MckLinky Blog Hops and used our photo essays for the links. Using that, we presented our photos to the class and shared our stories of what they were about. I thought some people came up with interesting things! Then we talked about our letters to editors or letters to politcal representatives and what the letters should consist of. This semester is going by so fast, I can't even believe it's almost over!!
