The Pond in Winter

For this blog, you have to do a little research inside and outside. Inside research is to see what you can learn of the history of Lindeman Pond. How long has it been here? Why is it here? What does it do in the ecosystem? These are questions to encourage you, but you don't need to answer them all. Outside research is to go to the Pond. Hang out, stand on your head, close your eyes, open your nose, touch it, look into it at it on it--all it contains and all it reflects. Then write: 350-450 words. See if you can put your inside and outside research into conversation as you write as a way of understanding Thoreau's technique. Please post before Monday's class.
