University of Michigan School of Natural Resources & Environment via Compfight

A week or so ago, Miss W took part in a global education conference. The people who presented and listened to all the sessions are part of a network of educators around the world. They have their own little community or network.

As a student, what type of communities or networks do you have
both in school and outside of school hours?

These communities might include:

• sporting groups
• after-school activities
• networks online such as Twitter, Facebook, Minecraft
• local community groups eg gardening or Boy Scouts
• country-level groups
• global groups

This week, the theme to write about is “Community.”

You might like to think about the following and mention some in your post.

• The pros and cons of being in a community
• Which communities you are part of now
• Which communities you would like to join or be part of later in life
• Roles within a community
• Responsibilities when part of a community
• How to find out about communities to join
• Value of being in a community

Remember to have your post flipped to the magazine, you need to have a great post as mentioned in previous posts in the challenge. This week, Miss W has flipped about 200 new posts to the magazine, but she has also left comments about making sure you have included images and links within your great posts.

Keep visiting other students and reading posts from the magazine!
