July 20, Question 2

On a more global scale, meaning anything outside of this classroom, how do communities, organizations, objects, etc. bridge themselves together? For example, complete sentences and poetry bridged together to create the prose poem. Obama and Biden bridged themselves to create the current Presidential team. The spoon and the fork merged to create the spork. Poodles and Labs made the Labrodoodle. What examples can you think of? If you could bridge any two things in the world together, what would you pick? Why is this connection important to you?

July 20, Question 1

I've titled our blog "Bridging the Blank." For the sake of our class, what do you think this title means? What does it mean to "bridge" something? What is the significance of the word "blank"? What could it mean? 

Welcome to our class blog!

Hello, everyone!

This is a space designed for you. Throughout the next four weeks, your and your peers will use this space to discuss various questions that the teachers, your peers, and even you, will pose. Each day you will answer two questions: one local and one global. You will use the full 55-minute class period to answer the questions and respond to your classmates. In essence, you will have a conversation with each other through writing.

Your teachers have created the questions for days one and two. However, after that, you will take turns creating the questions yourselves. Happy blogging!
