Welcome back.

Steps:

1.  Go here.

Scroll down a little until you see the audio bar for “Jill Lepore On How a Pandemic Ends” – not the first one, but the second one: it’s a audio track that is 9:27 in length.

Before you do your index card drawing, listen to historian Jill Lepore talk about the dark years of the polio virus and how it affected the lives of children.  I’ll ask you to share your thoughts at Class Meeting (but if you are only coming to this post just before the meeting, wait until after to listen and to do your ICD). If you need to take notes or draw in order to maintain focus, do that!

Clear your mind, remove any external distractions, and press play.

Nine minutes and twenty-seven seconds later:

2.  Outer space.

3.   Inner space.

4.  While you listen to Dolly Parton sing about the “Light of a Clear Blue Morning,” draw this:

You receiving the news that the COVID-19 vaccine works.  What are you doing?  What are you thinking? What are you feeling?

5.  Title: “Hear Ye, Hear Ye!  The Vaccine Works!”

6.  Date it.

7.  Send it to me.

See you at 10:00!  Please have your Wagamese writing open on your computer!
