PLN #4

I read "Old and New" by Will Richardson because this article matters to me, "Why you say?" because it shows that we are all like Will's kids, curios to a certain point. This blog s I liked this article because it described a family moment that involved to curios kids and a really big tree. Will Richardson went up to see a huge dead tree that was almost 200 years old. His kids being curios and all looked up a equation and figured out. Will said when standing with your back against the trunk that you can't see any blue sky at all. This matters to education because it shows how important field trips can be, lasting memories of work come from being out in the field putting equations and learning to the test. For example I remember taking a field trip to the zoo to study our favorite animals in 2nd grade, a animal pooped on me that field trip. This could mean to the world that not all accomplishments are in a office, some can be outside in the open air. It could also mean spend more time with your family while they can. Family and education are important put them together into one idea and they suddenly become very important.

    Can you make sure to state more clearly in your topic sentence what matters and why? Also, you need to proofread your response checking spelling, punctuation, etc.... Finally, end with a clear concluding sentence.
