Coming Up for Air
After being, quite honestly, dunked in an ocean of information (or "immersed" as Mr. Armstrong says), we were given a day to reorganize our thoughts, brainstorm new ideas, and get more info from another source. Quite a bit like coming up for air from our ocean of... stuff. Sitting with new people, we reviewed the notes we had so far for Immersion, and figured out that we all needed to do a little more work on them. For myself, it was the Main Ideas about the Age of Exploration that threw me off, and needed rethinking. We went on sharing the notes we had collected, as Mr. Armstrong came by to check on us. Our new source of info was a United Streaming video about the Age of Exploration in general, which we watched while frantically jotting down notes. This was punctuated with "Water Fountain Chats" which I didn't really understand, not having attended KIS before. Lastly, we brainstormed ideas for the Discussion due tonight, like things needed for future space travel. Some highlights from our's were: bread, butter, meat, cabbage, mustard = HAMBURGER... incredibly important for a voyage to outer space, I'm sure. Finishing up, thanks to Mr. Armstrong for a great class, and good luck in the Discussion tonight everybody! Good night!
