Wikis can be used to combine students information together, so they can learn from each other and communicate with each other.

We can combine our do nows into one for the entire class.

Invisibility

        Being invisible for a day would be a life changing experience. Given just a day, I would help those who are in need of assistance around town. For example, I would help an old person reach the top of the shelve for a cereal box or help a child from getting bullied. Also, I would try stopping mischievous behavior from becoming a serious crime. 

          If I were to get this invisibility cloak during the winter, I would try to shovel all the driveways of the old. They are not as strong as they used to be, so it is difficult for them to pick up the heavy snow and lift it. I would also scrap the ice off their cars so, it will be easier to see while they drive. Having the invisibility cloak for a day would be awesome!
