Unit 1:Chapters 1 and 3 - Blog It!

After reading Unit 1: Chapter 1 of Urban Reader for College Writers, answer the following question:

Do you support the call for more civics in the classroom? Why or why not?

Be as detailed and as opinionated as you like. You may speak about a personal experience, or just discuss the idea in general.

 Last week you read Unit 1: Chapter 3 of Urban Reader for College Writers. Now, answer the following question:
Some people think that young kids should not have much homework or out-of-class projects, so that they have more time to act like kids while they still can, while others think these activities help the children immensely. Do you think elementary school students should take time to volunteer in schools or in their communities? Why or why not?


You must post a comment answering both of these questions by Friday, September 20th, and you must reply to at least one post by a classmate before class on Monday. You may feel free to post as many times and as much as you like beyond the minimum requirement. Remember, this counts as class participation and a homework grade. Have fun with it!
