why should children teach adults
After watching TED about Adora Svitak I realized that children that age can also give a very inspiring speech but I mostly realized that adults teach children but I think there are somethings that adults should also learn from children. Since children are very pure in imaginations and has less stereotypes about a lot of things. For example, if adults have a stereotype of how building should look like, meanwhile children doesn't \know much and doesn't have stereotype so I think children can be a way better architect and the finished building's design might be better than adult's. Since children is something that you all go through in your life, I think you should remember what it was like and how to think like one of them. Then I think you can increase your imagination. Also I think age difference is just something that limits children from having fun. Children doing things that they like will be good for this world since they are going to grow up and if they do whatever they want, their future will be better. Thank you for reading my response essay.

Read your first two "sentences" again. The first one is much too long and isn't just one thought, but multiple thoughts. The second sentence has the opposite problem; it is an incomplete (or broken) thought. As we talked about in class, sentences are thoughts. One sentence=one thought.
ReplyDeleteAlso, if you follow the format presented in class for this assignment, then that would help organize your thoughts. As a reader, I want to understand what you are writing about. Writing is the translation of thoughts into words.
About your content, do you think a child can be an architect without adult knowledge or engineering? Do you think an adult architect would be better with a child's imagination? This is what Adora Svitak meant by "reciprocal learning" between children and adults.
