Tissue Box Presentation Day
Today in class we did something special! The day before Ms. Fusaro had asked us to list things that people use to identify with. our list was incredibly big and we were told to choose one of the things on our list. Some of the items include but are not limited to, white, black, African American, conservative, liberal, pro-life, pro-choice, and gamer just to name a few. After we chose our identities we decorated our boxes and were told that we needed to get people to write what they thought about those things on little slips of paper anonymously. Today we had a class discussion for most of the period about what people wrote and what it means and what this means about our society.
What we were able to learn from this discussion was that the Antonopoulos aspect would lead to some hateful comments and that others found good answers and good discussions. many people actually have opinions about many of these things and would not have actually commented had it not been anonymous.
The lesson and small project was very fun and I think I speak for my fellow students when I say that we enjoyed it very much!
