Chair Project: use the Facebook Video as a jumping off point for our next project. Think about the transcript and what is means for a middle school. What do we use to come together, connect, open up, and create a place where we all belong and know we are not alone?
Facebook Video and transcript:
Chairs. Chairs are made so that people can sit down and take a break. Anyone can sit on a chair and, if the chair is large enough, they can sit down together. And tell jokes. Or make up stories. Or just listen.
Chairs are for people. And that is why chairs are like Facebook.
Doorbells. Airplanes. Bridges. These are things people use to get together, so they can open up and connect about ideas and music and other things that people share
.Dance floors. Basketball. A great nation. A great nation is something people build so they can have a place where they belong.
