Working with Charities

Today in class, Mr. Schick posted an edible document that the whole class had to partake in. The purpose was to find information on charitable organizations so we could get a better understanding of the charity we want to contribute to. We paired up in groups and started to find good charity websites so we could write about them. I was working with one of my classmates Alex. We were looking on the John Dau Foundation website and adding information about the foundation on the document. As we were adding, we saw that there were more people on the document then there were people in our class. Plus, some anonymous users on the document kept deleting peoples work as they were typing it up. Mr. Schick then disabled editing on the document so no one would keep deleting other peoples work. He told us to copy what we have typed, and to continue working on a word document. He would then allow 5 minutes at the end of class, to copy their work from the word document onto the document that everyone was working on. That is exactly what we did before the bell rang. It was a very productive day, and Mr. Schick told us that there will be a test on the movie "God Grew Tired of Us" on Friday. I hope that I do well on it.
